Bacteriophages Facilitate the Survival of Lactic Acid Bacteria in Kimchi Fermentation

The World Institute of Kimchi (President: Hae Choon Chang), a government-funded research institute under the Ministry of Science and ICT, has confirmed in a new study that bacteriophages, which were previously considered a 'nuisance' during the process of food fermentation, actually play the role of key helpers that facilitate the survival of lactic acid bacteria (LAB).

Novel Active Substance Drives Cancer Cells Toward Self Destruction

A new active substance attacks a key protein in tumor cells, leading to complete degradation. In cell experiments, this caused cancer cells to lose their protection and die.

Chaperone-Shielding Mechanism Regulates Protein Glycosylation

Proteins are often called the building blocks of cells, but even those building blocks need to be built. One of the most important steps in the process of building proteins is glycosylation, when sugar molecules (glycans) are attached to the maturing protein.

Sabotaging T Cell Exhaustion for Cancer Therapy

Like all hardworking things, the cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) of the immune system charged with detecting and destroying cancer cells tend to get very tired-so much so, in fact, that they can even die from exhaustion.
