Much of the difficulty of determining the contributions of individual residues to protein structure and function stems from the need to generate and evaluate a large number of mutants. The ...

Proteins are the workhorses that keep our cells running, and there are many thousands of types of proteins in our cells, each ...

A team of researchers designed AI model capable of generating new proteins, trained on a simulation of 500 million years of evolution.

Researchers developed ProtGPS, an AI tool that predicts protein localization in cells and how mutations affect disease. The ...

Introduction Definition of Peptides Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, typically consisting of 2 to ...

A new study published in Biochemistry sheds light on how bacteria regulate their genes, challenging long-held assumptions ...

DeepMind created the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database, which now includes over 200 million structures. Access to these protein structures opened the door to a deeper understanding of their ...

Proteins, the pillars of cellular function, often assemble into 'complexes' to fulfill their functions. A study reveals why this assembly often begins during the very process of protein synthesis or ...

It’s been trained on 771 billion unique tokens – the AI term for a unit of data – taken from databases of natural protein ...

The ability to alter proteins to refine control over binding affinity and specificity can create tailored therapeutics with reduced side effects, highly sensitive diagnostic tools, efficient ...

Collagen, the body’s most abundant protein, has long been viewed as a predictable structural component of tissues. However, a ...
