- Title
A day in the half-life of a protein.
- Authors
Doerr, Allison
- Abstract
The article focuses on a research conducted by Eran Eden and colleagues at the Weizmann Institute of Science regarding a method called bleach-case to quantitatively measure the half-lives of protein in human cancer cells. It says that the method can be used for the identification of proteins which are actively degraded and diluted during cell division. It adds that result of the research shows that cancer cells do not use protein degradation to compensate for changes in the dilution rate.
