A systematic review of 38 studies finds that protein language models excel on benchmarks but largely lack experimental ...

Google researchers have developed a method that speeds up protein structure prediction by 8.6 ...

University of Missouri researchers have released the world's largest collection of protein models with quality assessment—a groundbreaking new resource that could accelerate drug development for ...

Nvidia and Google DeepMind expand AlphaFold database with 1.8 million protein complex predictions covering 2,800 viruses to accelerate pandemic ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers have developed a ...

Researchers have designed artificial protein structures that mimic and build upon viral architecture, potentially opening new avenues for delivering therapeutic genes and vaccines. The breakthrough ...

Proteins are the molecular workhorses of cells. To understand their functions, scientists soon realized that they had to figure out proteins’ shapes. But solving a protein structure is a challenging ...

A study from Cornell researchers could enable a quantum leap forward in identifying and deciphering cancer-driving genetic mutations, the first step in developing effective therapeutics. Cells become ...

The algorithm called AlphaFold has now been used to predict structures for all known proteins. The protein-folding process can be represented as a pathway through an energy landscape. Protein ...

The tiny protein known as transthyretin can cause big problems in the body when it misfolds after secretion. While healthy transthyretin moves hormones through blood and spinal fluid, misfolded ...
