Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions. It involves the systematic identification, quantification, and analysis of the entire protein complement ...
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers in the Netherlands assessed the structure of human circulatory immunoglobulin M (IgM) and its relationship with the small CD5 ...
HIV is a lifelong infection that, without proper antiviral treatment, will kill cells of the immune system and leave individuals susceptible to infections and cancers. The longevity of this virus ...
The UK company DeepMind and its research partners have released predicted protein structures for nearly every protein expressed in the human body—more than 20,000 of them—for free online. The new ...
Chemically, proteins are just a long string of amino acids. Their amazing properties come about because that chain can fold up into a complex, three-dimensional shape. So understanding the rules that ...
As a means of identifying and determining protein structures, artificial intelligence (AI) keeps growing stronger. For example, it is no longer limited to the study of protein monomers. It is ...
Ivan Anishchenko receives funding from NSF (grant DBI 1937533) and NIAID (Federal Contract HHSN272201700059C). This process of de novo protein design can be difficult to get right. Protein engineers ...
