Electron microscopy is an exceptional tool for peering deep into the structure of isolated molecules. But when it comes to ...

To learn how biological molecules like proteins function, scientists must first understand their structures. Almost as important is understanding how the structures change, as molecules in the native ...

Researchers at Google DeepMind have developed AlphaFold 3, an AI model that can predict the structure of and interactions between biological molecules including proteins, DNA and RNA, and small ...

As an organic chemist, Lark Perez studies the chemical structures of molecules that exist in nature—and as a synthetic ...

Multi-omics integration enhances understanding of biological systems, revealing complex interactions through spatial ...

These chains come in a wide range of lengths. In humans a typical protein is about 400 amino acids long; some are a lot longer. Molecules of RNA, one of the two nucleic acids, can reach up to 100,000 ...

CD3 (including its subunits CD3ε, CD3δ, CD3γ, and CD3ζ) is the central component of the TCR-CD3 complex and is crucial for recognizing T cells and responding to antigens. Every subunit of CD3 has ...

Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a novel method of delivering drugs into human cells using large biological molecules, by first encasing them ...

Capturing the structure of large molecular complexes with variable shape is an extremely difficult task. Scientists now have been able to do it - thanks to a new approach regarding an important ...

Researchers have discovered how unstructured segments of surface proteins regulate the biological function of a cell. Their ...
