A computational biology company that started in space tech is looking to change how biopharma finds disease targets by ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how scientists understand proteins—these are working molecules that drive nearly every process in the human body, from cell growth and immune defense to ...

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, ...

Age-related changes in protein tagging and degradation may help explain how the brain declines over time and why diet can ...

A new artificial intelligence-driven pipeline developed in a collaborative research combines protein structure prediction, sequence design, and ...

Efforts to unlock the mysteries of proteins, building blocks of life, have earned three scientists the 2024 Nobel Prize in chemistry. The prize goes to David Baker “for computational protein design,” ...

In 2020, news headlines repeated John Moult’s words at the end of a stunning competition: Artificial intelligence had “solved” a long-standing grand challenge in biology, protein structure prediction.

Life runs on instructions you never see. Every cell reads DNA, turns that message into RNA, and then builds proteins that ...

Now, new research by Penn State scientists has revealed this vital process may be governed by a previously unknown molecular ...

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 ...
