Scientists post lower speed limit for cell-signaling protein assembly
The apparently random self-assembly of molecular threads into the proteins that make the body work is far less frantic than previously thought, Michigan State University scientists say. That discovery could be a key to help unlock the nature of some diseases.

Re: Scientists post lower speed limit for cell-signaling protein assembly
Trouwens, voor de vouwers onder ons, Folding@Home heeft een niet onbelangrijke rol gespeeld in deze ontdekking!
The Lapidus lab is one of our collaborators, so I'm familiar with this work. Moreover, this experimental result was a key production from a recent new theory of how proteins fold, which have emerged from Folding@home simulations (see http://www.pnas.org/content/107/24/10890.a...e5-4c7cb8563052 ).
