LA JOLLA, California, April 3 (TNSres) -- The Scripps Research Institute issued the following news:
Scripps Research scientists create atomic-level structural models of enzymes associated with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, including lupus and Alzheimer's.
When nucleic acids like DNA or RNA build up in a cell's cytoplasm, it sets off an alarm call for the immune system. Enzymes usually clear these nucleic acids before they cause an issue, but when these enzymes d . . .
