Proteins are the workhorses of biological systems, performing essential functions ranging from structural support to enzymatic catalysis and cellular communication. Accurate characterization of ...

Now researchers from The Rockefeller University have unearthed intriguing genetic evidence: a protein variant found only in humans that may have helped shape the emergence of spoken language.

A study published in December by Duke professor Rohit Singh and his team proposes a new computational model called antibody ...

Enzymes significantly speed up the chemical reactions that keep you alive. Researchers are using AI to create new ones to tackle modern challenges.

This important manuscript proposes a new strategy for the identification of new mechanisms of drug resistance based on SAturated Transposon Analysis in Yeast (SATAY), a powerful transposon sequencing ...

Unfortunately, there isn't an enzyme for many reactions we would sorely like to catalyze—things like digesting plastics or ...

AlphaFold, an AI tool, predicts protein structure from amino acid sequences. MIT researchers, led by Professor Richard Young, have developed ProtGPS, a model that predicts where proteins localize ...

In 1958, Francis Crick's sequence hypothesis finally provided an answer to the question: what is a gene? Why is this definition now considered overly simplistic? Roberts and Sharp also noted that ...

However, the study provides limited new insights into the relationship between retinal lamination defects and overall retinal function. Neural lamination is a common feature of the central nervous ...
