In fact, each gene in cellular DNA contains the code for a unique protein structure. Not only are these proteins assembled with different amino acid sequences, but they also are held together by ...

Because a protein’s structure helps determine its biological function, the new structures, along with those available from cryo-EM, could revolutionize biology and drug discovery. To be useful ...

The sequence of amino acids in the chain determines how the chain will fold up to make the protein, so different proteins have different three-dimensional shapes. The three-dimensional shape of a ...

The new Dogma meets Thomas Kuhn’s definition of a paradigm shift. The DNA/RNA Dogma is sufficiently unprecedented to attract ...

Membraneless organelles, also called biomolecular condensates, are changing how scientists think about protein chemistry, ...

Protein design aims to create customized antibodies for therapies, biosensors for diagnostics, or enzymes for chemical ...

The pioneering AI model AlphaFold can predict the structure and interactions of molecules with unprecedented accuracy.

In most people, the lung-infecting pathogens known as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) ...
