The proteins MmpL5 and MmpL4 are efflux transporters, critical pumps that help the pathogen M. tuberculosis grow by scavenging essential iron from the iron-deprived lung granulomas of its human host.

A predictive biophysical model that integrates protein-DNA structures and sequences to accurately determine genomic binding sites and affinities of DNA-binding proteins.

Researchers found a rare example of an ancient protein that can still function in a molecular mirror world – offering new clues about the evolutionary history of proteins that bind to ...

Scientists have for the first time looked deep into the protein structure that may determine our vision - and discovered that it is much more dynamic than previously thought.

Efforts to unlock the mysteries of proteins, building blocks of life, have earned three scientists the 2024 Nobel Prize in chemistry. The prize goes to David Baker “for computational protein ...

The first low-resolution structure, aided by docking with AlphaFold2, the artificial intelligence protein structure prediction system, showed the domain that spans the inner membrane of M.

From Symphony to Structure: Listening to Proteins Fold By assigning sounds to the dynamic bonds within proteins, scientists gathered new insights on protein folding.

Let’s take a closer look at this protein structure determined using AlphaFold2. This protein structure is part of a huge molecular structure in the human body.
