A protein engineering method using simple, cost-effective experiments and machine learning models can predict which proteins will be effective for a given purpose, according to a new study. A protein ...

Designing proteins that can change their structure, and ultimately function, in response to specific molecular signals, a phenomenon known as allosteric regulation, has been a long-standing goal of ...

Nuclera extended its Series C with $12M, bringing total to $87M, to expand Protein Discovery with full-format antibody expression, purification, and binding validation, enabling scalable, AI-driven ...

Researchers from Auburn University, partnering with the University of Basel in Switzerland, have discovered a new way to make a cancer-targeting protein complex more stable, opening doors to better ...

Proteins are the building blocks of life. These biomolecules comprise chains of amino acids that fold into precise shapes to perform specific jobs in nature. But these elegant structures form only ...

Proteins are life's molecular workhorses, doing everything from turning sunlight into food to fighting viruses. They are built from 20 different types of amino acid molecules, so even a small protein ...

Proteins catalyze life by changing shape when they interact with other molecules. The result is a muscle twitching, the perception of light, or a bit of energy extracted from food. But this crucial ...

It has long been thought that protein function and stability are highly sensitive to changes in the composition of the internal structures, or protein cores. However, a large-scale experiment probing ...

A recent scientific breakthrough has emerged from the work of researchers aiming to combat SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. The study focuses on the design and development of a novel ...
