Inteins are self-splicing elements that excise themselves from translated proteins to leave behind the extein, or mature protein. The majority of functionally relevant residues are thought to be ...
Proteins are the building blocks of life. They consist of folded peptide chains, which in turn are made up of a series of amino acids. From stabilizing cell structure to catalyzing chemical reactions, ...
Why do problems occur with a special variant of 'protein glues', the split inteins, that severely limit their use in producing proteins? A team has now answered this question. Proteins are the ...
SpliceBio, a clinical-stage genetic medicines company pioneering protein splicing to address diseases caused by mutations in large genes, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in the ...
