When scientists want to create a protein that can potentially treat disease, one approach is to begin with a different ...

The planet is getting hotter, and life will need to adapt to rising temperatures to survive. One way cells adapt to changing ...

Proteins carry out most of the work in the cell, and predicting their structure, function and interactions remains one of the ...

Within the past few years, models that can predict the structure or function of proteins have been widely used for a variety of biological applications, such as identifying drug targets and designing ...

Some proteins in human cells that are implicated in cancer also have causal roles in neurodevelopmental disorders, raising the possibility of repurposing targeted cancer therapies to help address ...

Researchers have discovered a previously unknown cell-protecting function of a protein, which could open new avenues for treating age-related diseases and lead to healthier aging overall. McMaster ...

Proteins, the pillars of cellular function, often assemble into 'complexes' to fulfill their functions. A study reveals why this assembly often begins during the very process of protein synthesis or ...

Researchers at the University of Liverpool have discovered that SYCP1, a protein previously thought to function only during ...

This fully updated volume explores a wide array of new and state-of-the-art tools and resources for protein function prediction. Beginning with in-depth overviews of essential underlying computational ...
