High-resolution structures of nascent polypeptide chains in complex with the ribosome — the cell’s protein-synthesis machinery — reveal how the ribosome guides protein folding. Ribosomal attachment ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — The shared culprit in a slew of diseases — cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes — is molecules our cells have made incorrectly. Think of them as proteins gone wrong.

Numerous BYU students, including Mikaila Sass (pictured), worked with Dr. Willardson in his lab on this discovery. The human body heavily relies on protein molecules for proper functioning. Protein ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the scientific landscape, offering fantastic solutions to some of the most pressing global challenges. From combating climate change to transforming ...

Protein hydrophobicity is a fundamental driver of protein folding dynamics, underpinning the formation of a central hydrophobic core that stabilises the three-dimensional structure amid an aqueous ...

Google DeepMind’s work with AlphaFold has been nothing short of a miracle, but it is computationally expensive. With that in mind, Apple researchers set off to develop an alternative method to use AI ...
