The database of 200 million protein-structure predictions now includes homodimers, adding new biological relevance.
Emerging technologies such as lab-based meat could produce the same quality and quantity of protein on hundreds of times less ...
With so much noise, hype and sometimes conflicting information, protein intake can start to feel complicated, but it doesn't have to be.
Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...
New research explores how underused food-processing byproducts could be turned into plant-based cheeses with better texture ...
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is one of the most important processes in our cells to ensure that no faulty or incomplete proteins are produced. Scientists have now identified a central mechanism ...
Two parallel experiments in protein self-assembly produced strikingly different results, demonstrating that protein designers ...
Michael Martynowycz, PhD, assistant professor of structural biology at the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, recently described a new technique for solving protein structures in a rec ...
Scientists have developed a new blood test that could spot Alzheimer’s earlier by detecting hidden changes in how proteins fold in the bloodstream.
A new LMU study shows how proteins function reliably even without a stable 3D structure – and the crucial importance not only of short sequence motifs, but also of the chemical characteristics.
