ANCIENT PROTEINS nestled in fossils contain troves of information about long-dead creatures. However, like all ancient molecules, proteins degrade. Until recently the oldest proteins recovered for ...

Individual mammalian cells contain billions of protein molecules, which must be synthesized, deployed, and removed with ...

Proteins that are no longer needed, defective, or potentially harmful are labeled with a molecular "tag" and dismantled in ...
