Biotech advances from UT’s new Deep Proteins group are changing the game with help from artificial intelligence. Researchers study the three dimensional structures of molecules on a wall-sized video ...

Proteins, one of the smallest building blocks of life on Earth, hold promise for answering some of biology's biggest ...

From protein translation to mitosis, fundamental cellular processes are multifaceted and dynamic. Researchers seeking to understand the inner workings of a cell benefit from multidisciplinary ...

Structural biology is shifting from predicting protein shapes to uncovering broader organizational rules; AI tools like AlphaFold have made large-scale protein structure data far ...

Two parallel experiments in protein self-assembly produced strikingly different results, demonstrating that protein designers ...

The search space for protein engineering grows exponentially with complexity. A protein of just 100 amino acids has 20^100 possible variants-more combinations than atoms in the observable universe.

Proteins Mosaic Q is a global citizen-science initiative that invites volunteers to help confirm a newly identified structural pattern in the three-dimensional architecture of proteins. The project ...

Researchers have created a method called optovolution that uses light to guide the evolution of proteins with dynamic behaviors. By engineering yeast cells so their survival depended on proteins ...

Genetic engineering is poised to help biopharma realize the potential benefits of commercial-scale, plant-based protein production, according to a leading researcher. The idea of making therapeutic ...

AI protein function prediction uses machine learning models trained on sequence and structural data to infer protein roles at scale. Techniques such as transformer-based models enable automated ...
