Researchers at the IPK Leibniz Institute have discovered a previously unknown protein that is central to plant reproduction.

Researchers used advanced microscopy to uncover important protein structures. For the first time, two important protein ...

Our cells rely on microscopic highways and specialized protein vehicles to move everything—from positioning organelles to carting protein instructions to disposing of cellular garbage. These ...

A research team has identified a molecular mechanism that coordinates the operation of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptor, which is key to regulating excitatory synapse function in ...

Scientists have for the first time looked deep into the protein structure that may determine our vision - and discovered that it is much more dynamic than previously thought. Skip to content Menu ...

By resolving the structure of PINK1, researchers have provided deeper insights into its function and how its dysfunction can lead to neurodegeneration,” he added.

Researchers say structure reveals many new ways to change PINK1, essentially switching it on, which will be "life-changing" for people with Parkinson’s disease.

Predicting proteins’ structure from their amino acid sequences had stumped researchers since the 1970s. But in 2020, Hassabis and Jumper developed an artificial intelligence model called AlphaFold2.

AlphaFold3 uses AI to helps scientists more accurately predict how proteins interact with other ... can predict the structure of every protein in the universe — and show how they function.

Move over, chatbots. This upgraded AI can model antibodies, DNA, and molecules from disease organisms. This next generation of AlphaFold, from Google Deepmind, is poised to significantly advance ...
