How DNA packaging controls the “genome’s guardian” Our cells tightly pack DNA into structures called nucleosomes, which protect DNA but also hide important sites. The key cancer-fighting protein p53 can still access these hidden sites, especially at n...

Our cells pack DNA into tiny bundles that hide important parts. Researchers at the FMI and EPFL found this packing affects how the cancer-fighting protein p53 works, revealing new insights into cancer. www.fmi.ch/news-events/...

A comprehensive Schizosaccharomyces pombe atlas of physical transcription factor interactions with proteins and chromatin Transcription factors (TFs) are key regulators of gene expression, yet many of their targets and modes of action remain unknown. In Schizosaccharomyce…

Decoding protein interactions: A step toward personalized medicine Investigating how proteins interact is key to understand how cells work and communicate. In a new study — the first of its kind to examine the effects of all possible mutations in a protein across int...

In a new study published in Nature Communications, researchers led by Guillaume Diss have provided key insights into how protein interactions are governed and how mutations influence cellular functions—work that might help advance personalized medicine.

Thanks Jane! That was a fun project.

New tool to map protease specificity may pave the way for improved treatments FMI researchers have developed a new tool that maps how proteases —enzymes that process proteins— cut their targets. This innovation offers new insight into the highly selective nature of proteases, w...

Researchers in @labgrosshans.bsky.social & their collaborators developed a tool that maps how proteases—enzymes that process proteins—cut their targets. The work, published in Molecular Systems Biology, could revolutionize drug design for conditions like diabetes. www.fmi.ch/news-events/...
