University of Missouri researchers have released the world's largest collection of protein models with quality assessment—a groundbreaking new resource that could accelerate drug development for ...

Proteins are the end products of the decoding process that starts with the information in cellular DNA. As workhorses of the cell, proteins compose structural and motor elements in the cell, and they ...

Proteins often function in pairs or groups, concealing their internal connection points and making it difficult for scientists to study their individual units without altering their natural structure.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how scientists understand proteins—these are working molecules that drive nearly every process in the human body, from cell growth and immune defense to ...

Scientists have for the first time looked deep into the protein structure that may determine our vision - and discovered that it is much more dynamic than previously thought. RBP3 not only changes its ...

Inside each cell of the human body are proteins that control which genes are expressed at the right place and time. However, intriguingly, many of the most important proteins involved in gene ...

Scientists at Walter and Elizabeth Hall Institute (WEHI) have made what they describe as a huge leap forward in the fight against Parkinson’s disease, solving a decades-long mystery by determining the ...

HIV is a lifelong infection that, without proper antiviral treatment, will kill cells of the immune system and leave individuals susceptible to infections and cancers. The longevity of this virus ...

In a new move, researchers have shown that protein design software can incorporate motion into its outputs. The resulting protein gives a wave with one arm as it binds and releases a calcium ion ...

Researchers found that paired pathogenic variants can restore protein function rather than make it worse. This phenomenon ...

Pranam Chatterjee, PhD, assistant professor of bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), emphasizes that text is all you need for artificial intelligence (AI) models to effectively ...
