A new study reveals a possible protein misfolding mechanism that may resolve a long-standing mystery of why certain proteins refold into unexpected patterns. Proteins are long molecules that must fold into precise three-dimensional shapes to function properly within cells. However, this process sometimes goes wrong, resulting in misfolded proteins that can contribute to disease if […] Read More
