Animal proteins optimize muscle gain due to essential amino acids. Plant-based proteins require careful pairing for similar ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Proteins are often called the working molecules of the human body. A typical body has more than 20,000 different types of proteins, each of which are involved in many functions ...

A protein’s amino acid sequence helps determine its structure. Thus, proteins with similar sequences would be expected to have similar structures. But sometimes seemingly minor sequence changes can ...

Efforts to unlock the mysteries of proteins, building blocks of life, have earned three scientists the 2024 Nobel Prize in chemistry. The prize goes to David Baker “for computational protein design,” ...

Advancements in spatial proteomics enable detailed tissue mapping, linking protein localization to disease mechanisms and ...

For those outside the chemistry cognoscenti, the announcement might have seemed little more than researchers patting each other on the back. But the question of protein folding had plagued scientists ...
