The sequence of amino acids in the chain determines how the chain will fold up to make the protein, so different proteins have different three-dimensional shapes. The three-dimensional shape of a ...

Protein engineering is a powerful biotechnological process that focuses on creating new enzymes or proteins and improving the functions of existing ones by manipulating their natural macromolecular ...

In drug development, the term “modality” refers to the category of therapeutic based on its chemical or biological nature. Small molecules are the most established modality, known for their chemical ...

Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions. It involves the systematic identification, quantification, and analysis of the entire protein complement ...

EPFL researchers have discovered how cells help keep their protein levels steady even when their ability to make new proteins ...

This fully updated volume explores a wide array of new and state-of-the-art tools and resources for protein function prediction. Beginning with in-depth overviews of essential underlying computational ...

Thousands of different chemical reactions must happen inside every cell, every second in order for them to function. If these cellular reactions happen too slowly the cell may die. If the cell is part ...
