A study published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society reports that artificial intelligence can enhance protein ...

Proteins are life's molecular workhorses, doing everything from turning sunlight into food to fighting viruses. They are built from 20 different types of amino acid molecules, so even a small protein ...

Proteoforms, the diverse molecular variants of proteins, are key to understanding cellular functions, disease mechanisms, and ...

A problem for biopharmaceutical companies comes as degraded proteins lead to ineffective and possibly dangerous medicines for their clients. Drug companies work on formulation development to protect ...

Repeat proteins, defined by sequential arrays of short structural motifs, offer an intriguing departure from the folding behaviour of conventional globular proteins. Their modular architecture enables ...

Proteins that are commonly mutated and overexpressed in cancers are called oncoproteins and are typical targets for cancer therapies. Cancer treatment faces significant challenges due to the presence ...

Houston Methodist scientists have uncovered an unexpected side of a protein best known for its link to brain diseases. The ...

The Human Domainome 1—the largest library of human protein variants—reveals the cause of certain genetic disorders, paving the way for personalized medicines. “We measured every possible mutation in ...

Fruit flies, mice, zebrafish, yeast and the tiny worm C. elegans are model organisms that have carried modern biology on ...

Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) are typically diagnosed after irreversible pathology has developed. Aging, the strongest risk factor, drives molecular changes that ...
