In the earliest phase of creating human proteins, the protein complex NAC performs an essential task by starting the first steps toward folding proteins into their correct three-dimensional structures ...

In a study published in Nature Communications, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have mapped key steps in the assembly of the mitochondrial ribosome, offering new clues to how defects in this ...

An illustration showing how the nascent polypeptide-associated complex (NAC, green) at the ribosome (blue) helps the amino acid chain (white) to fold into a protein. In the earliest phase of creating ...
