When a protein folds, its string of amino acids wiggles and jiggles through countless conformations before it forms a fully folded, functional protein. This rapid and complex process is hard to ...

Harnessing the power of AI, a research team at the MRC-University of Glasgow Center for Virus Research has launched Viro3D—the most comprehensive database of human and animal virus protein structure ...

Researchers used AlphaFold3, the latest AI-based protein modeling system, to predict the structures of all 25 known human ...

Imagine standing on a vast, dark plain. Without light, you cannot see dips and rolls in the grass or make out hills and valleys. Even if there’s a city off in the distance to your right, it does ...

When Schrödinger launched more than 30 years ago, computational biology was a nascent technology. Schrödinger, a pioneer in the field, relied heavily on the Protein Data Bank (PDB), a collection of ...

Proteins are among the most studied molecules in biology, yet new research shows they can still hold surprising secrets. Researchers have discovered previously undetected chemical bonds within ...

Every protein in the body is encased in a water shell that directs protein structure, provides vital stability and steers function. Because of this, water molecules represent a powerful but largely ...

A Nigerian researcher, Muinat Zubair, has developed a method for predicting protein structure and protein-protein interactions using a combination of experimental and computational approaches.Zubair ...

Pranam Chatterjee, PhD, assistant professor of bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), emphasizes that text is all you need for artificial intelligence (AI) models to effectively ...
