The human body generates 10–100 billion cells every day, and the same number of cells die to maintain homeostasis in our body. Cells infected by bacteria or viruses also die. The …
Surgical resection of tumours requires precisely locating and defining the margins between lesions and normal tissue. However, this is made difficult by irregular margin borders …

Motivation Proteases are enzymes that cleave target substrate proteins by catalyzing the hydrolysis of peptide bonds between specific amino acids. While the functional proteolysis …
Subtiligase-catalyzed peptide ligation is a powerful approach for site-specific protein bioconjugation, synthesis and semisynthesis of proteins and peptides, and chemoproteomic …
Clarifying the mechanisms connecting neurofibrillary tangle (NFT) neurotoxicity to neuronal dysfunction in humans is likely to be pivotal for developing effective treatments for …
