Most proteins are left-handed, but scientists have found an ancient molecule that works in both mirror-image forms.

we describe the 1.9 Å resolution structure of E. coli FhuD in complex with gallichrome. FhuD adopts a novel fold and represents a new class of iron binding ABC-type transport proteins.

Using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), astronomers have observed a globular cluster known as NGC 1754 as part of a ...

In a new move, researchers have shown that protein design software can incorporate motion into its outputs. The resulting ...

Centromeres, specialized regions located at the center of chromosomes, are critical for ensuring proper cell division. During ...

The latest version of Google DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs’ AlphaFold model can predict the structure and relationships not only of proteins, but “all of life’s molecules”, according to its ...

When Alphabet announced in 2021 that its AlphaFold AI could predict the structure of almost every known protein, it was a major story, not just in the pharma world, but beyond. Yet, that was far ...
