Proteins, one of the smallest building blocks of life on Earth, hold promise for answering some of biology's biggest ...

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 chemical characteristics.

Protein function prediction and annotation represent critical challenges in the post‐genomic era. As high‐throughput sequencing continues to generate vast amounts of protein data, computational ...

Scientists at Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center have uncovered a new dual function for a ...

Researchers have created nanoparticles that can remove disease-driving proteins while also delivering a chemotherapeutic or ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny biological bubbles that carry nucleic acids and proteins between cells, playing an ...

Scientists at Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center have uncovered a new dual function for a ...

The genomes of phages—viruses that infect bacteria—are largely composed of "dark matter": genes that encode proteins whose functions remain unknown. Less than four years ago, a team led by Prof. Rotem ...

AI protein function prediction uses machine learning models trained on sequence and structural data to infer protein roles at ...
