Most drugs work by inhibition: they block a protein's activity but leave the protein itself intact. Targeted protein ...

The review details how fibrous proteins such as collagen, keratin, and silk, along with adhesive proteins and elastin, can be tailored through chemical modifications and de novo molecular design to ...

Researchers developed DeepAFM, an AI-based method that removes noise from protein imaging data and accurately identifies ...

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. Many ...

Proteins are the molecular workhorses of cells. To understand their functions, scientists soon realized that they had to figure out proteins’ shapes. But solving a protein structure is a challenging ...

It's a tough world for microbes. When resources grow limited and environments worsen, microbes have figured out ways to ...
