On Wednesday, the Nobel Committee announced that it had awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to researchers who pioneered major breakthroughs in computational chemistry. These include two researchers ...

A team of researchers has built a new protein sequencing workflow that pairs mirror proteases with deep learning software to read peptide sequences with far greater accuracy than previous methods.

Andrew Joseph covers health, medicine, and the biopharma industry in Europe. You can reach Andrew on Signal at drewqjoseph.71. LONDON — A trio of scientists who opened new doors in our understanding ...

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 the chemical characteristics.

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...

A pink ribosome surrounds part of a red-and-yellow helix-shaped strand of messenger RNA while a yellow protein branch extends from the ribosome. A graphic representation of a ribosome (pink) ...

They build our bodies and orchestrate the molecular processes in cells that keep them healthy. They also present a wealth of targets for new medications. From everyday pain relievers to sophisticated ...

A new type of blood test that analyses the folding of amino acids rather than their amounts may detect earliest biological signs of Alzheimer's disease, according to a study. Analysis of blood plasma ...

Pranam Chatterjee, PhD, assistant professor of bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), emphasizes that text is all you need for artificial intelligence (AI) models to effectively ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have discovered a potential new strategy to fight back against Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, conditions that are linked to the toxic accumulation of ...
