Drug Development Advance for Treatment of Autoimmune Diseases, Chronic Inflammation Disorders
The immune system functions as the body’s protectors, defending it from intruders such as bacteria and viruses. However, to ascertain what is happening in the cell, the immune system requires information on the foreign invaders. This chore is taken on by protein complexes called immunoproteasomes. These are cylindrical complexes break down the protein structures of the intruders into fragments that can be used by the defense system. More...07 Oct 2014
