Scientists organize millions of proteins by shape, as predicted by AI, revealing 700,000 new families and some shapes unique ...

David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper shared the Nobel prize in chemistry for work that revolutionized our understanding of protein structure. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...

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, ...

G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are proteins triggered by ligands (protein-binding chemicals) from outside cells to ...

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 rapidly advancing field of computational biology, a newly peer-reviewed review explores the transformative role of deep learning techniques in revolutionizing protein structure prediction. The ...

DNA origami cages constrain individual proteins toward preferred orientations on electrodes, dramatically improving ...

Jane Richardson never considered herself an artist. Then, in the late 1970s, the structural biologist found herself in need of some colored pencils, pastels and sketching paper. Richardson, a ...

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), or human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV), is a common viral respiratory infection that triggers mild, cold-like symptoms. However, at-risk populations, including ...
