Introduction In the intricate world of cellular biology, glycosylation—the process of attaching sugar molecules to proteins, lipids, or other glycans—serves as a fundamental layer of regulation. These glycan modifications influence diverse biological functions, from protein folding and immune recognition to cell signaling and disease progression. At the heart of this system lie enzymes such as …
Introduction to Rhamnolipids Rhamnolipids are a class of biosurfactants that have garnered significant interest in various scientific and industrial sectors. These amphiphilic molecules, composed of rhamnose sugar moieties and β-hydroxy fatty acids, exhibit exceptional surface-active properties. Their biodegradability, low toxicity, and environmentally friendly profile make them ideal candidates for applications in pharmaceuticals, agriculture, cosmetics, and …
Introduction: The Expanding Frontier of RNA-Protein Interactions The regulation of gene expression extends beyond transcription and into the post-transcriptional space, where RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) exert critical influence. These proteins determine the fate of RNA molecules by mediating processes such as splicing, localization, stability, and translation. The mapping of RNA-protein interactions has therefore become a focal …
