Researchers at Michigan State University have found that Retinoblastoma tumor suppressor proteins are at their most effective just before they are destroyed. "Retinoblastoma proteins are unique in that they use controlled destruction to do their jobs in a timely but restrained fashion," Liang Zhang, lead author of the study, said. "This is an unusual way for proteins to act," Zhang said. As an organism grows, proteins essential for fuelling ...Saturday, 15 December 2012
Tumor Suppressor Proteins at Their Best Just Before Being Destroyed

"Retinoblastoma proteins are unique in that they use controlled destruction to do their jobs in a timely but restrained fashion," Liang Zhang, lead author of the study, said.
