New computer simulations that model every atom of a protein as it folds into its final three-dimensional form support the existence of a recently identified type of protein misfolding. Subscribe to ...

An international team led by Einstein Professor Cecilia Clementi in the Department of Physics at Freie Universität Berlin introduces a breakthrough in protein simulation. The study, published in the ...

An international team led by Einstein Professor Cecilia Clementi in the Department of Physics at Freie Universität Berlin has introduced CGSchNet, a machine-learned coarse-grained (CG) model that can ...

CGSchNet, a fast machine-learned model, simulates proteins with high accuracy, enabling drug discovery and protein engineering for cancer treatment. Operating significantly faster than traditional all ...

John Jumper (S.M. ’12, Ph.D. ’17) was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2024 for his contributions to the development of AlphaFold, an AI model that revolutionized protein structure prediction.

Dynamin assembles into a ring around the neck of a forming vesicle and utilizes GTP hydrolysis energy to constrict and sever the membrane. The simulation reveals that the dynamin ring expands (loosens ...
