David Baker's lab at the University of Washington is announcing two major leaps in the field of AI-powered protein design.

Synthetic biology is a growing field of research that is aiming to create a new kind of organism. Engineering synthetic proteins that can perform simple cellular functions as they would in real life ...

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich, the Technical University of Munich and the LMU University Hospital Munich uncovered a ...

A research team at Sejong University's Plant Immunity Laboratory, led by Professor Nam-Soo Jwa, has uncovered an important ...

Cytochrome P450 enzymes constitute a superfamily of haem-containing proteins that catalyse the oxidation of a wide range of exogenous and endogenous compounds. Their function is fundamental to the ...

The protein community is awash in data. As of October, the UniProt database of protein sequences had more than 44 million entries. UniProt serves as a clearinghouse for sequences. Researchers who ...

Researchers have worked out the exact function of an enzyme that is critical for normal muscle structure and is involved in several muscular dystrophies. The findings could be used to develop rapid, ...

Doctors have long treated heart attacks, improved asthma symptoms, and cured impotence by increasing levels of a single molecule in the body: nitric oxide. The tiny molecule can change how proteins ...

As the world’s population increases and squeezes limited resources, everyone will have to do more with less – and one tool that can help with this is enzymes, such as those made by Novozymes. At IFT’s ...
