Barbeau, William | Characterization of a New Ribosome Associated Quality Control Pathway | Proteins are life's double edged sword. Proteins are essential macromolecules of life, and the tasks that some proteins accomplish are quite marvelous. At the same time, if proteins misfold they have the potential to kill the cell that harbors them. It is becoming increasingly clear that proteins ha... | Ribosomes - Research | 2016-12 |
