Institute of Science Tokyo One leading theory on the origins of life on Earth proposes that simple chemical molecules gradually became more complex, ultimately forming protocells—primitive, non-living structures that were precursors of modern cells. A promising candidate for protocells is polyester microdroplets, which form through the simple polymerisation of alpha-hydroxy…

Breakthrough Study Reveals How Protein Glitches May Be Driving Alzheimer’s

For years, scientists have focused on amyloid beta buildup as the main culprit in Alzheimer’s disease, but a new study suggests the real problem might lie in a stalled protein-cutting process in the brain. Researchers found that mutations in the PSEN1 gene disrupt how the γ-secretase enzyme trims amyloid precursor…
