Royal jelly protein boosts cell growth, potential cure for diseases.
The researchers studied a protein called MRJP 1 in royal jelly to understand its structure and function. They found that MRJP 1 forms a large protein complex with another protein called Apisimin. This complex can help cells grow and multiply. The researchers used special techniques to separate and identify the different parts of the complex. The findings suggest that MRJP 1 oligomer is made up of MRJP 1 monomer and Apisimin, and it can promote cell growth.
