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 ...

Evolution has been fine-tuning life at the molecular level for billions of years. Proteins, the fundamental building blocks of life, have evolved through this process to perform various biological ...

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

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

The information DNA contains is the instructions that the cell uses to make proteins. Proteins play a big part in determining the characteristics of specialised cells and whole organisms.

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

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 ...

Researchers have developed a computational method to explicitly consider the impact of water while designing membrane receptors with enhanced stability and signaling, paving the way for novel drug ...

In biology, the binding of cellular proteins to molecules called ligands produces myriad functions essential for life, including cell signaling and enzymatic action. In biotechnology and medicine, the ...

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

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