The first synthetic fragment of tau protein has been created, revealing more about the diagnosis and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Researchers at Northwestern University (IL, USA) and the ...

Professor Jonathan Wittenberg used this model of sperm whale myoglobin structure as a teaching tool at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Yeshiva University in the Bronx. It was used beginning ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Proteins are often called the working molecules of the human body. A typical body has more than 20,000 different types of proteins, each of which are involved in many functions ...

The people behind the original protein modeling tool Alphafold have now developed a newer version, Alphafold 3, which is changing the way that this fundamental technology works. Looking at the changes ...

In a remarkable leap forward for synthetic biology, the AI model ESM3, developed by Evolutionary Scale, has achieved a significant milestone. By simulating half a billion years of evolutionary ...

"Protein modeling has advanced in recent years, and we wondered if we could now use large language models to essentially predict better protein sequences," said co-senior author Jonathan S. Gootenberg ...

For the field of drug development, hitting the right target with atomic precision to achieve therapeutic effect remains the core challenge. While traditional R&D pipelines are dependent on ...

This important study introduces a new biology-informed strategy for deep learning models aiming to predict mutational effects in antibody sequences. It provides solid evidence that separating ...
