Researchers from the Universities of Konstanz (Germany), Leeds (U.K.) and Stanford (U.S.) have discovered that the nascent polypeptide-associated complex (NAC) prevents the aggregation of proteins associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. The study, “Dual role of ribosome-binding domain of NAC as a potent suppressor of protein aggregation and aging-related proteinopathies,” is published in the journal Molecular Cell
