New research outlines an enhanced approach that could lead to treatments for prostate cancer and other diseases.

For decades, scientists have relied on structure to understand protein function. Tools like AlphaFold have revolutionized how researchers predict and design folded proteins, allowing for new ...

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) make up about 30 percent of our proteome. They are important to many fundamental aspects of biology and disrupted in disease. Since they lack a stable shape, ...

In synthetic and structural biology, advances in artificial intelligence have led to an explosion of designing new proteins with specific functions, from antibodies to blood clotting agents, by using ...

Different DNA Structures Nucleate the Folding of Proteins to form specific complexes that modulate the readout of genetic information Self-organization is inherent in the way Nature has engineered ...

TORONTO and SAN FRANCISCO, March 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Dalriada Drug Discovery ("Dalriada"), a partnered discovery organization supporting small-molecule programs from hit identification through ...

Protein dynamics and intrinsic disorder represent a paradigm shift in our understanding of protein structure and function. Rather than depending solely on a single stable three‐dimensional structure, ...

Researchers at Harvard and Northwestern have developed a machine learning method that can design intrinsically disordered proteins with custom properties, addressing nearly 30% of all human proteins ...
