JERUSALEM, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Israeli scientists have developed a new method of protein synthesis that could be used to promote researches and create new drugs, scientific website "Hayadan" reported on Thursday.

Researchers from the Business Development at Israel Institute of Technology (Technion) formed complex protein clusters by precisely tuning chemical processes.

This is an extension of the chemical toolbox for the synthesis of proteins and a new channel for development of small molecules chemistry.

Proteins are essential components of the cells from which organelles are built into cells, muscles and more.

Artificial creation of proteins is a way of promoting biochemical, structural and functional studies as well as drug development. Therefore, the success of the research group may dramatically affect these directions.
