On Wednesday, the Nobel Committee announced that it had awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to researchers who pioneered major breakthroughs in computational chemistry. These include two researchers ...

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 ...

University of Missouri researchers have released the world's largest collection of protein models with quality assessment—a ...

Artificial intelligence has solved one of biology’s most stubborn mysteries: how proteins fold into their intricate three-dimensional shapes. But as the field shifts from prediction to application, a ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have determined the atomic-level structure of a zinc-transporter protein, a molecular machine that regulates levels ...

The protein 'MIPS' changes its internal structure when it becomes active. Its disordered active centre becomes a defined structure with special functions. The protein plays a key role in the ...

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 ...

Amino acids are organic compounds that serve as the fundamental building blocks of proteins. They play a crucial role in the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs. Amino ...
