At TCD, Viewing protein folding helps scientists home in on neurodegenerative disease
Posted: 16th May 2017 Author: Vi Doan
A team of international researchers led by Professor in Physics at Trinity, Martin Hegner, an Investigator in CRANN, has for the first time observed how proteins fold while being produced in real time. The work has significant implications for understanding protein synthesis generally, and particularly in neurogenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The team’s findings have just […]
