...rtment of Energy lab's 38-year history. The grant designates PNNL as an NIH research resource center and will establish PNNL as a base for proteomics research worldwide. It will fund the development of advanced instrumentation for studying the large and complex protein sets that constitute biological systems ...Small protein helps special RNA make repairs
...RNA, tmRNA, recognises the snarled-up ribosome and designates the protein produced as waste. The ribosome is released and the failed protein is then destroyed to prevent it from causing damage. Sharief Barends discovered that the protein SmpB (Small protein B) modified the structure of the tmRNA so that it is a......ormalized earlier this year.
