🚨 New Research Published in Life Science Alliance! 🧬✨ Excited to share a recent publication from the Maurizio Molinari 's lab, that characterizes TMX5, a member of the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family. The findings also shed light on the role of ERp44—another PDI family member—in determining intracellular distribution and clients’ selection of TMX5. 👏 Congratulations to the authors: Carolin Hoefner, Tatiana Soldà, Carmela Galli Molinari and Concetta Guerra for their outstanding contributions! 👉 Check out the paper in Life Science Alliance to dive into the details of this exciting discovery : https://lnkd.in/eq5uUvN9 #Science #Research #ProteinFolding #ERp44 #TMX5 #PDI #MolinariLab #LifeScienceAlliance #ProteinDisulfideIsomerase https://lnkd.in/eYnP9YPk

🚀 Exciting Breakthrough in DNA Repair Research 🎉 Huge congratulations to the brilliant researchers Ilaria Ceppi and Maria Rosaria Dello Stritto, from Professor Petr Cejka's laboratory, for their internationally recognized work on DNA repair mechanisms! 🧬🔬 Their research focused on the BRCA1 protein, a key player in our body’s “emergency response” to DNA damage. Understanding how BRCA1 repairs damaged DNA opens new doors for cancer prevention and treatment. This discovery could lead to early detection and more effective therapies, potentially improving patient outcomes. 👏 Kudos to these dedicated scientists : your achievements inspire us all! #DNARepair #BRCA1 #CancerResearch #WomenInScience #Innovation #PioneersInResearch #FutureOfHealthcare #ScienceBreakthrough #Teamwork https://shorturl.at/CLMG3
