A new study, led by bioengineers at UC Berkeley, has taken an important step in that direction by measuring a panel of cancer proteins in rare, individual tumor cells that float in the blood. (sciencedaily.com)
There, I performed the spectroscopic analysis of the in silico predicted protein - ligand pairs of endocrine disruptors and breast cancer proteins using circular dichroism, native mass spectrometry and microscale thermophoresis. (lindau-nobel.org)
The scientists were then able to identify cancer proteins by introducing fluorescent probes that bind to and light up a specific protein target. (sciencedaily.com)
