CASP, the protein structure prediction contest that launched DeepMind’s AlphaFold to international fame and a Nobel Prize, ...

Inside each cell of the human body are proteins that control which genes are expressed at the right place and time. However, ...

In 2003, Baker and his team generated the first de novo protein, a 93-amino acid protein called Top7. 1 According to Baker, the fact that the X-ray structure of Top7 aligned well with their ...

Researchers at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) and the University of Freiburg have gained systematic insight into the organization of proteins in mitochondria.

Predicting proteins’ structure from their amino acid sequences had stumped researchers since the 1970s. But in 2020, Hassabis and Jumper developed an artificial intelligence model called AlphaFold2.

Challenges of capturing a shape-shifting virus. One reason it has been so difficult to capture the structure of the HCV E1E2 protein is that it is both flexible and fragile.It changes its shape so ...

Linke said scientists had long dreamt of predicting the three-dimensional structure of proteins. "Four years ago in 2020, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper managed to crack the code.
