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. The ability to ...

Scientists from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), have used deep learning techniques to design an approach for generating artificial proteins that can move and change shape much like ...

An artificial saliva in the form of a mouthwash, produced with the CANECPI-5 protein extracted from sugarcane and modified in a laboratory, can aid in treating teeth in patients with head and neck ...

Despite decades of malaria research, the disease still afflicts hundreds of millions and kills around half a million people each year - most of them children in tropical regions. Part of the problem ...

The Protein Domain Insertion Optimizer, abbreviated as ProDomino, can forecast which protein domains – like domino tiles – have to be fitted together to engineer a merged protein with new properties.

The ability to engineer shapeshifting proteins opens new avenues for medicine, agriculture, and beyond. Proteins catalyze life by changing shape when they interact with other molecules. The result is ...
