Scientists have decoded the 3D structure of an ancient viral protein hidden in our DNA. The HERV-K Env protein, found on ...

You are mostly but not entirely human. If we crunch the numbers, 8% of your genome actually comes from viruses that got ...

His research involves studying the structure of viruses and how they interface with the cells of their hosts’ bodies — hence the mapping of the Zika antibodies. That structural understanding is key to ...

Researchers developed an AI model, LucaProt, that uncovered over 251,000 new RNA virus species, expanding our understanding of the RNA virosphere across global ecosystems.

AI model EVE-Vax provides clues about how a virus may evolve and the immune response it could provoke.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping diverse fields in science, with molecular science being no exception. A recent ...

The MD-refined model, designated p5-343, revealed a novel groove-like pocket not visible in the crystal structure, enabling more accurate prediction of small-molecule binding.

Many icosahedral viruses assemble proteinaceous precursors called proheads or procapsids. Proheads are metastable structures that undergo a profound structural transition known as expansion that ...
