Investigating the interaction of La related proteins with colliding ribosomes

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

Translation of mRNA into proteins is a critical cellular biological process for all life. This requires ribosomes to act with an array of translation factors to decode mRNA sequences. Read more

Targeting Ras palmitoylation for the treatment of cancer

University of Dundee School of Medicine

Lay summary. Proteins can be thought of as molecular machines that carry out work within cells. Protein activity can be regulated through the reversible attachment of certain chemical groups to specific amino acids within proteins. Read more

Supervisor: Dr N Fraser
