Osmolytes Stabilize Proteins, May Lead to New Alzheimer’s Treatments
Small molecules called osmolytes help proteins maintain their structure and function under stressful conditions, shows a recent study which provides important insights that could aid in the development of treatments for diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Osmolytes are small molecules that help cells survive stress by stabilizing proteins and preventing them from misfolding. Misfolded proteins can’t perform their functions properly,…
