Proteins could hold the key to future treatments for a wide range of
chronic health problems including Motor Neuron Disease, myotonic
dystrophy and a wide range of cancers, University of Sheffield
scientists have revealed.
Experts from the University's Department of Molecular Biology and
Biotechnology, collaborating with scientists from Harvard Medical School
in the USA, have revealed how a complicated set of proteins called TREX
act as a passport for the transfer of cell blueprints which create
proteins that are essential for life.
The researchers believe their better understanding will mean they can
ultimately fix problems in the process which cause fatal health
conditions like Motor Neuron Disease, myotonic dystrophy and a wide
range of cancers.
