These AI-designed proteins work as biosensors, reporting a measurable output when they detect their target ...

Protein function prediction and annotation represent critical challenges in the post‐genomic era. As high‐throughput sequencing continues to generate vast amounts of protein data, computational ...

Intrinsically disordered proteins have no single structure, making them challenging for traditional structural biology ...

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. Many ...

Proteins are life’s molecular machines, built from amino acids whose sequences and side chains dictate their structure and function. From essential dietary amino acids to complex folding patterns, ...

Researchers at the Leibniz Institute on Aging - Fritz Lipmann Institute (FLI) in Jena found that oxidative stress in the ...

T cells are crucial components of our immune system, serving as critical protectors against infection and disease. But there ...

Zinc is an essential trace element that controls myriad biological processes. The delicate balance of its concentration in ...

Scientists link a rising brain protein to memory decline and show it can be reversed in mice, offering a new target for ...
