Proteins are the molecular workhorses of cells. To understand their functions, scientists soon realized that they had to figure out proteins’ shapes. But solving a protein structure is a challenging ...
How did the earliest life on Earth build complex biological machinery with so few tools? A new study explores how the ...
Researchers recently published findings that could lay the groundwork for applying quantum computing methods to protein structure prediction. Researchers from Cleveland Clinic and IBM recently ...
For structural biologists, the molecular mapping of proteins is critical to figuring out their structure and function. But doing so takes patience and persistence. X-ray crystallography involves ...
The intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) do not attain a stable secondary or tertiary structure and rapidly change their conformation, making structure prediction particularly challenging. These ...
Giving Structure to Language: Profluent’s AI Models Move toward Precise and Steerable Protein Design
The “ChatGPT moment” for biology proceeds to unfold as protein language models, or machine learning tools trained on large databases of protein sequences, work to decode the language of life with the ...
A new meta-analysis of decades of research suggests that Earth's earliest proteins could fold into complex, functional shapes despite having access to only about half of today’s amino acids. Conducted ...
10x Science, a biotech startup founded in late 2025, has secured $4.8 million in seed funding to advance AI-driven protein characterization. The company aims to address a critical bottleneck in drug ...
Kirill Alexandrov Artificial intelligence–designed “smart” proteins can be programmed to turn on when they detect a certain ...
