The amino acid sequence of a protein encodes its three-dimensional structure and determines its biological function. Although researchers can readily generate proteins with altered amino acid ...

Yale researchers have now developed a method to map and measure the structure of RNA as it develops, an advance that may help ...

The three-dimensional shape of a protein determines its function. This is because proteins form attachments and interact with many other molecules and structures inside organisms. The shape of a ...

The sequence of amino acids in a protein, known as its primary structure, determines its unique three-dimensional shape and function. Proteins can further fold and assemble into complex structures, ...
