A Look Back

Dark Matter Blog

The only subject in school that held my interest was biology. As soon as I learned about DNA and RNA, I wanted to be a molecular biologist. I wanted to use molecular biology to create drugs. Synta was focused on small molecule drug discovery and development in oncology and inflammatory diseases.

What is Protein Nitration? | BMG LABTECH

BMG Labtech

The introduction of a nitro- group into a protein molecule is also implicated in different diseases including cardiovascular disease , lung disease, diabetes, cancer and some neurodegenerative conditions. While protein nitration is linked to disease, in many cases its precise physiological function is often unknown.

Toxic Proteins for Drug Discovery

Codon

Ricin is toxic because it inactivates ribosomes, RNA-protein machines that translate each triplet codon of mRNA into its corresponding amino acid, linking them together to form peptides and proteins. This is the step after the initial transcription of DNA into mRNA by RNA Polymerase II, the protein to which alpha amanitin binds.
