ABOUTThis is reported by the portal “Scientific Russia”Specialists from the Krasnoyarsk Scientific Center of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Siberian Federal University have created special proteins that make it possible to detect a cancerous tumor in the human body much faster.

In order to obtain new proteins, the specialists extended the luminous molecule and attached one of the proteins, survivin or MIA, to its end. The first protein is found in most malignant tumors, the second is produced mainly by melanoma cells.
In general, during the experiments it turned out that the proteins are quite active and stable. They can also be stored frozen in solution for up to six months. In general, they can help in the future in creating test systems that determine the presence of oncological markers in human blood.
