Apple developed an alternative AI model to predict the 3D structure of proteins, and it shows promise. Here are the details.

The world of protein engineering just took a giant leap forward. A team in China has developed a method that makes designing better proteins faster, cheaper, and easier.

Protein folding is a critical process by which linear chains of amino acids adopt specific three‐dimensional conformations essential for biological function. In recent years, studies have increasingly ...

The strategies biopharmaceutical manufacturers currently use to limit protein misfolding are complex, time-consuming, and generate low yields with only limited scalability. Covalent organic frameworks ...

Researchers showed that many mitochondrial proteins enter the organelle during synthesis, guided by folding patterns and structural signals. This discovery revises decades of biochemical models. Mitoc ...

Genes are the building blocks of life, and the genetic code provides the instructions for the complex processes that make ...

Protein folding is essential for maintaining physiological functions, and improper folding can lead to the formation of toxic aggregates such as amyloids, ...
