Amino acids play a fundamental role in regulating how cells respond to drugs. These molecules, which form proteins, act like ...

Glutamate transporters catalyse the thermodynamically unfavourable transport of anionic amino acids across the cell membrane by coupling it to the downhill transport of cations. This coupling ...

Many amino acids have been detected in meteorites, while the Rosetta mission detected the amino acid glycine in comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko; amino acids were also found in the sample of ...

Research in mice shows limited intakes of one particular essential amino acid can slow the impacts of aging and even lengthen their lifespan. Scientists are now wondering if these findings could help ...

Amino Acids You can skip these. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, so if you’re taking protein powder, you definitely don’t need to be taking aminos, says White.

A new study has found that amino acids — the building blocks of proteins — remain stable in concentrated sulfuric acid, the stuff that Venus' clouds are made of.

In an article published in JAMA Network Open, researchers at the University of São Paulo's Medical School (FM-USP) report on a study involving 774 men and women who followed a vegan diet in Brazil.
