Genetic diseases that result from truncated proteins can be targeted by so-called nonsense suppression therapies—drugs that prevent protein translation from terminating prematurely. A new ...

Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings (DNA) announced on Thursday that, in collaboration with Microsoft (MSFT)-backed OpenAI (OPENAI), it has designed an AI system that can lower costs in cell-free protein ...

A novel study uncovers how a subtle chemical tweak transforms the naturally occurring phytotoxin into a powerful molecular glue, 12-deoxyfusicoccin (12-dFC), that locks 14-3-3 proteins onto the ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the maintenance of intracellular iron distribution. Disruption of this process was found to ...

A study on how aging impacts the brain in killifish has found that getting old selectively impairs the production of some key DNA- and RNA-binding proteins. And this change contributes to hallmarks of ...

AI protein function prediction uses machine learning models trained on sequence and structural data to infer protein roles at ...
