When a protein folds, its string of amino acids wiggles and jiggles through countless conformations before it forms a fully folded, functional protein. This rapid and complex process is hard to ...

A paper titled "Functional implications of unusual NOS and SONOS covalent linkages found in proteins," by Matthew D. Lloyd, Kyle S. Gregory, and K. Ravi Acharya, from the University of Bath Department ...

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 ...

Proteins can form “catch-bonds” that tighten under force, much like a finger trap. Using artificial intelligence and molecular simulations, Auburn scientists uncovered how these bonds strengthen ...

Google DeepMind's groundbreaking new AI predicts not only the structure of proteins, ligands, DNA, RNA and "all of life's molecules," but how they'll interact. It promises a radical, revolutionary ...

Researchers from Cleveland Clinic and IBM recently published findings in the Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation that could lay the groundwork for applying quantum computing methods to protein ...

For most proteins, structure is function. The complex three-dimensional shapes that proteins adopt create folds and pockets that can accomplish the remarkably improbable: driving chemical reactions ...

Today (September 21), the Lasker Foundation announced this year’s award winners. John Jumper, a computational biologist at DeepMind, and Demis Hassabis, cofounder and CEO at DeepMind, were awarded the ...
