The database of 200 million protein-structure predictions now includes homodimers, adding new biological relevance.

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

Proteins, one of the smallest building blocks of life on Earth, hold promise for answering some of biology's biggest ...

Using a tool to solve a protein's structure, for most researchers in the world of structural biology and computational ...

Proteins are the end products of the decoding process that starts with the information in cellular DNA. As workhorses of the cell, proteins compose structural and motor elements in the cell, and they ...

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

The genomes of phages—viruses that infect bacteria—are largely composed of "dark matter": genes that encode proteins whose functions remain unknown. Less than four years ago, a team led by Prof. Rotem ...

Many proteins have a complex architecture that enables biological functions. Molecules can bind to specific sites on a ...

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.

David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry on Wednesday for their work on protein structure. Atila Altuntas / Anadolu via Getty Images On Wednesday morning, ...

Proteins often function in pairs or groups, concealing their internal connection points and making it difficult for scientists to study their individual units without altering their natural structure.

When a protein folds, its string of amino acids wiggles and jiggles through countless conformations before it forms a fully folded, functional protein. This rapid and complex process is hard to ...
