The known protein universe just got a lot bigger. A newly released artificial-intelligence tool has generated an atlas of more than one billion predicted protein structures and billions more protein ...

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 ...

Recently, SandboxAQ launched what it claims is the largest publicly available dataset of protein-ligand pairs with annotated experimental binding potency data. According to the company, the ...

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 ...

In the wee hours of an October morning, David Baker, a protein biologist at the University of Washington (UW), received the most-awaited phone call in a scientist’s career. Halfway around the world, ...

Illustration showing how integrating protein three-dimensional structures with artificial intelligence algorithms can predict synergistic or antagonistic effects of drug combinations, guiding safer ...

Scientists from Scripps Research have uncovered new structures of transthyretin, a protein that moves important hormones like thyroxine through blood and spinal fluid. Misfolded versions of the ...

A South Korean research team has successfully designed large protein structures that replicate the natural assembly principles of viruses in nature by collaborating with a Nobel laureate and utilizing ...
