An international team of experts from [b]Bilbao, California[/b] and [b]Liverpool[/b] has unravelled the mechanism by which two proteins, namely MAT alpha 2 and MAT beta, bind to each other, thereby promoting the reproduction of tumour cells in liver and colon cancers. The research involved the use of X-ray crystallography and solution X-ray scattering techniques utilising some of [b]Europe’s[/b] most powerful X-ray synchrotron sources, ALBA in [b]Spain[/b], SOLEIL in [b]France[/b] and DIAMOND in the [b]UK[/b].
