Chinese scientists have developed a novel AI-guided protein engineering strategy that enables faster, cost-effective, and highly accurate protein design. A group of scientists in China, led by Profess ...

Protein folding is the process by which proteins achieve their mature functional (native) tertiary structure, and often begins co-translationally. Protein folding requires chaperones and often ...

In living organisms, every protein—a type of biological polymer consisting of hundreds of amino acids—carries out specific functions, such as catalysis, molecule transport, or DNA repair. To ...

In this work, the researchers showed how water molecules near a protein surface can influence misfolding. A mutation that is related to tauopathies has a subtle effect on water's dynamic structure in ...
