Proteins are the end products of the decoding process that starts with the information in cellular DNA. As workhorses of the cell, proteins compose structural and motor elements in the cell, and they ...

On Wednesday, the Nobel Committee announced that it had awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to researchers who pioneered major breakthroughs in computational chemistry. These include two researchers ...

At a biennial challenge where participants must blindly predict the structure of 100 proteins based on their amino acid sequences, a system developed by DeepMind captured researchers’ attention when ...

It is now relatively trivial to determine the order of amino acids in a protein. Figuring out how that order translates to a complicated three-dimensional structure that performs a specific function, ...

This review provides an overview of traditional and modern methods for protein structure prediction and their characteristics and introduces the groundbreaking network features of the AlphaFold family ...

is a senior reporter who has covered AI, robotics, and more for eight years at The Verge. AI research lab DeepMind has created the most comprehensive map of human proteins to date using artificial ...
