In the alphabets of our genomes,a single typo can mean the incompatibility between health and disease. The "words" are molecules, like enzymes, and one group of these called kinases are particularly important. However,it's difficult to pick apart the exact roles of misspellings in various kinases in a disease process. This week in ACS Central Science, researchers report development of a current way to determine this, and both in a lab dish and in mice.
