The global Human Proteome Project released its 2023 report describing new proteins identified in the past year, as well as new work beginning to characterize the functions of these proteins. The ...
Striving for the protein equivalent of the Human Genome Project, an international team of researchers has created an initial catalog of the human “proteome,”or all of the proteins in the human body.
The identification of 20 causal plasma proteins for prostate cancer represents a critical step toward addressing the need for improved diagnostic specificity and reveals promising new targets for ...
A major puzzle of biology is that while the human genome contains roughly 20,000 genes, many comparatively primitive organisms — including the universally-studied worm C. elegans — have almost the ...
Biological systems are functionally defined by the nature, amount and spatial location of the totality of their proteins. Resolving the spatiotemporal distribution of the human proteome at a ...
A controversial project that aims to create the building blocks of human life has started. However, in a world first, medical charity the Wellcome Trust, has given an initial £10m to start the project ...
Today, genomics is saving countless lives and even entire species, thanks in large part to a commitment to collaborative and open science that the Human Genome Project helped promote. Twenty-five ...
