The Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded on Wednesday to three scientists who have help unravel some of the enduring secrets of proteins, the building blocks of life. While Demis Hassabis and John ...

In a study published in Nature Communications, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have mapped key steps in the assembly of ...

Scientists from Scripps Research have uncovered new structures of transthyretin, a protein that moves important hormones like thyroxine through blood and spinal fluid. Misfolded versions of the ...

The tiny protein known as transthyretin can cause big problems in the body when it misfolds after secretion. While healthy transthyretin moves hormones through blood and spinal fluid, misfolded ...

The newly developed experiment-guided AlphaFold technology (green) can predict protein structures across a wider conformational space than the existing AlphaFold3 (red). Provided by Maddipatla et ...

A long-standing goal of neuroscience is to understand how molecules and cellular structures on a microscale give rise to communication between brain regions at the macroscale. "A central goal of ...

Cryo-EM studies in Science reveal how three human cone opsins distinguish wavelengths and relay visual signals ...

By engineering protein geometry with AI, researchers created virus-like shells up to 220 nanometers wide from a single ...

Scientists at UT Southwestern Medical Center, working with other U.S. researchers, have uncovered the structure of a key cell membrane protein in a bacterial model for Chlamydia trachomatis, the cause ...

An international research team led by a Korean scientist has succeeded in designing large-scale protein structures that faithfully replicate the self-assembly principles found in naturally occurring ...

A long-standing goal of neuroscience is to understand how molecules and cellular structures on a microscale give rise to communication between brain regions at the macroscale. Now, a study ...
