Every protein in the body is encased in a water shell that directs protein structure, provides vital stability and steers ...

The amino acid sequence of a protein encodes its three-dimensional structure and determines its biological function. Although researchers can readily generate proteins with altered amino acid ...

Proteins control all vital processes in every organism, for example growth and metabolism. A basic principle of protein ...

Tau protein is essential for microtubule stability and neuronal function. The protein’s disfunction is linked to several ...

Two key protein structures in the body are being visualized for the first time, thanks in part to the latest technology — ...

De novo protein design. In 2024, David Baker won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for computational protein design and the prize was shared with Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper for protein structure ...

Every protein in the body is encased in a water shell that directs protein structure, provides vital stability and steers function. Because of this, water molecules represent a powerful but largely ...

A University of California, Riverside-led team has made an advance in the basic understanding of Plasmodium falciparum, the ...

An AI approach developed by researchers from the University of Sheffield and AstraZeneca, could make it easier to design ...

In a preprint posted on bioRxiv, Profluent introduces a new method which now incorporates structural and functional context to protein language models for conditioned design. The approach, termed ...

Nanoparticles (NPs), materials with sizes ranging from 10 to 1,000 nm, are increasingly utilized as drug-delivery systems and ...

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells.
