In a breakthrough study, researchers have uncovered a deadly pathway of proteins in the cell, composed of a slippery tube that funnels proteins into a "chamber of doom" where they are shredded and recycled into the building blocks of new proteins. This new pathway found by researchers from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio may have applications for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and some cancers.
