Organ transplantation offers life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage organ failure, restoring function and vastly ...

Berkeley scientists have developed a smartphone-based biosensor that mimics coffee-ring physics to detect disease proteins with exceptional sensitivity — but more research is needed before it reaches ...

The spike protein of the coronavirus, or SARS-CoV-2, binds to a receptor on the host cells, called ACE2, which allows the virus to enter the cells and infect it. Binding is the first step for ...

We demonstrate that a conserved coronavirus spike protein peptide forms amyloid structures, differing from the native helical conformation and not predicted by amyloid aggregation algorithms. We ...
