Viruses are invading pathogens that infect host cells and rapidly replicate throughout the body. They carry a small piece of genetic material such as DNA or RNA surrounded by a capsid that needs a ...

Recent advances in computational biology have revolutionised the field of protein structure and function prediction. Traditionally, determining the three‐dimensional architecture of a protein from its ...

Researchers from the Advanced Science Research Center at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC) designed an experiment to test whether performing X-ray crystallography imaging using elevated temperature ...

A new LMU study shows how proteins function reliably even without a stable 3D structure—and the crucial importance not only of short sequence motifs, but also of chemical characteristics.

The three-dimensional shape of a protein can be used to resolve deep, ancient evolutionary relationships in the tree of life, according to a new study. It is the first time researchers use data from ...

For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

Leveraging AI and quantum calculations, scientists developed a new tool that yielded higher-quality structural information and solved notoriously elusive proteins.

A new LMU study shows how proteins function reliably even without a stable 3D structure – and the crucial importance not only of short sequence motifs, but also of the chemical characteristics.

This fully updated volume explores a wide array of new and state-of-the-art tools and resources for protein function prediction. Beginning with in-depth overviews of essential underlying computational ...

A newly published study in Protein and Cell identifies glutamine synthetase, an enzyme concentrated in brain support cells ...

Protein activity can be precisely regulated via subtle changes in temperature using heat-sensitive switches. Underlying this capability is a novel modular design strategy developed by researchers at ...
