Protein engineering is a powerful biotechnological process that focuses on creating new enzymes or proteins and improving the functions of existing ones by manipulating their natural macromolecular ...

Protein drugs feature significant advantages over small molecule therapeutics, including low toxicity, high specificity, and development speed. However, the quality control requirements are ...

Proteins play a key role in the life sciences - from basic research and biotechnological applications to the development and manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. Scientists at the Technical University of ...

At the University of Oxford, scientists have developed a nanopore technology that can identify three different post-translational modifications (PTMs) in individual proteins, even deep within long ...

Researchers have developed a method to evaluate the folding stability of a million proteins simultaneously. DNA libraries were used to generate protein -- DNA complexes that were treated with enzymes ...

PLAMseq utilizes a rapid biotinylation enzyme called TurboID, which tags nearby proteins, enabling the genomic loci and interacting proteome of a protein of interest to be identified in the same ...

In a paper recently published in Nature Communications, the HUN-REN-ELTE Protein Modeling Research Group (Institute of Chemistry) has laid the foundations for a mathematical method, allowing the ...

Understanding the structure of proteins is critical for demystifying their functions and developing drugs that target them. To that end, a team of researchers at Brown University has developed a way ...
