Four years after AlphaFold’s AI ‘solved’ protein structure, a fierce competition lives on Why the experiment known as CASP still has new challenges to tackle Adobe By Brittany Trang Jan. 7, 2025 ...

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 ...

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.

Given a list of molecules, the AI program can show how they fit together. It does this not only for large molecules like proteins, DNA, and RNA but also for small molecules known as ligands, which ...

When membrane proteins are designed to act as transmembrane channels or transporters, the central part of these proteins becomes aqueous, which greatly complicates our understanding (Killian and von ...
