“The ribbon-diagram representation was invaluable,” said Anastassis Perrakis, a structural biologist at the Netherlands Cancer Institute and Utrecht University. It helped scientists communicate, teach ...

Centromeres, specialized regions located at the center of chromosomes, are critical for ensuring proper cell division. During ...

Researchers from the Göttingen Cluster of Excellence Multiscale Bioimaging (MBExC) have uncovered the 3D structure of the ...

After 22 years of grueling experimentation, John Kendrew of Cambridge University finally uncovered the 3D structure of a protein. It was a twisted blueprint of myoglobin, the stringy chain of 154 ...

And it’s giving the data away for free, which could spur new scientific discoveries. DeepMind says its AlphaFold tool has successfully predicted the structure of nearly all proteins known to ...

DeepMind is releasing a free expanded database with its predictions of the structure of nearly every protein known to science, the company, a subsidiary of Google parent Alphabet, announced today.

That structure is essential for the protein's function. Typically, figuring out the structure involves laborious biochemistry to purify the protein, followed by a number of imaging techniques to ...

“You can look up a 3-D structure of a protein almost as easily as doing a key word Google search.” These are predictions, not actual structures. Yet researchers have used some of the 2021 ...
