Proteins in the cell or during the session, proteins do not have the same behavior
So far, researchers have analysed proteins primarily in sessions. Thus, many particularities have been known about these molecules that fulfill the main functions of the cell. However, the chemists of the University of North Carolina have indicated that these studies are not entirely correct. In fact, they have shown that proteins act differently when they are inside the cell.
There is a great difference between the internal environment of the cell and that of the essay. In the session the proteins are diluted, while the inside of the cell is full of proteins and other molecules. Therefore, proteins do not acquire the same appearance and it is known that the function of proteins depends on their appearance.
It seems that within the cell proteins are folded in a way that occupy the smallest possible surface. Although the research is very difficult, it will have to be taken into account from now on, especially in medicine, since proteins have great importance in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, as well as in cancer.
