Proteins are among the most studied molecules in biology, yet new research shows they can still hold surprising secrets. Researchers have discovered previously undetected chemical bonds within ...

Despite decades of research, its full behaviour remained a mystery, mainly because the protein is heavily glycosylated ... adding significant complexity to its structure . Using molecular ...

Protein structure predictions are bioinformatic analyses that produce predicted protein structures automatically using the protein amino acid sequence. Protein structures are important because ...

More than ten years ago, researchers at Rice University led by materials scientist Boris Yakobson predicted that boron atoms ...

Protein 4.1R in red blood cells has multiple binding sites for membrane and skeletal proteins and plays a critical role in maintaining cell morphology and membrane mechanical properties 1. The ...

The latest version of Google DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs’ AlphaFold model can predict the structure and relationships not only of proteins, but “all of life’s molecules”, according to its ...

Thousands of these four components encapsulate mRNA, shield it from destructive enzymes, and shuttle it into cells, where the mRNA is unloaded and used to make proteins. Although the concept seems ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

The second half develops topics in molecular biology and protein structure, with a view to discovering mechanisms underlying protein folding. Attention is focused on the energy flow through the ...
