Proteins and peptides form the cornerstone of cellular function, serving not only as essential catalysts and structural components but also as mediators of signalling and regulation in health and ...

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 ...

This year’s Lasker Basic Medical Research Award recognizes the contributions of Demis Hassabis and John Jumper for their invention of the AlphaFold artificial intelligence (AI) system, which predicts ...

STOCKHOLM — The Nobel Prize in chemistry was awarded Wednesday to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper for their breakthrough work predicting and designing the structure of proteins, the ...

Google DeepMind, the artificial intelligence company behind the popular AlphaFold tool, has published the next generation of the application’s protein structure prediction software. The new tool can ...

In every organism, the regulation of cell populations is a constant process. This balance relies on a continuous interplay ...

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 ...

The genetic code has given rise to the enormous diversity of proteins we see in nature—and rearranging the order of codons that make up a protein’s sequence leads to an immense variety of structure ...

Rush hour never ceases at the nucleus’ border. Gene products begin their lives in the nucleus as strands of mRNA that ship out into the cytoplasm, where they serve as templates for protein synthesis.

Saint Louis University’s Protein Core is a shared-use core facility that supports expression, purification and analysis of reagent and preclinical proteins. The core provides instrumentation and ...

Proteins and peptides are the primary functional polymers of medical biochemistry, directing virtually all cellular processes through their structural diversity, catalytic activities and signalling ...
