Single molecule force spectroscopy sheds light on chaperone-client interactions in proteins
Proteins walk a long road between birth and death, but they never walk it alone. At all stages of their lives, proteins are accompanied by chaperones: helper proteins that work to fold their clients, escort them where they are needed, and usher them to their final resting places. Studying these…

Martin Kundrát: Evolúcia človeka
Slovensko-anglická vysokoškolská učebnica Akým organizmom je človek a kam v živočíšnej ríši smerujú jeho korene? Kedy sme vznikli a ako vyzerali naši predkovia? Ako sa zmenil časom náš vzťah k prírodnému prostrediu a stali sme sa skutočne sapiens, teda rozumní? Vysokoškolská učebnica Martina Kundráta a Clémenta Zanolliho ponúka vedeckú cestu hľadania odpovedí na tieto zásadné…
