Ágnes Tóth-Petróczy to become third full professor working at CASUS and BIOTEC

A generative model using AlphaFold3 as prior infers protein conformational ensembles consistent with measured experimental data.

New University of Guelph tuberculosis research, published in Nature Communications, sheds light on the role of the proteasome, the bacterial equivalent of a recycling centre, where damaged proteins ar...

Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) represent at least one-third of the human proteome and defy the established structure–function paradigm. Be...

Most mitochondrial proteins are produced in the cytosol and imported through the translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane (TOM) to reach their final destination. Although this protein entry gat...

Since it was unveiled in 2020, Google DeepMind's game-changing AI tool has helped researchers all over the world to predict the 3D structures of hundreds of millions of proteins.

Disease-causing proteins – ERC Synergy Grant for research at TUM on the role of chaperone “helper proteins.”

This survey aims to assess the impact of NMR TITAN on biomolecular research and identify priorities for future development. The form should take approximately 5 minutes to complete. Your responses may...

Abstract. Whereas alignment has been fundamental to sequence-based assessments of protein homology, it is ineffective for intrinsically disordered regions

Protein conformational entropy plays a vital role in functions like binding and catalysis. This Perspective discusses three ways macromolecules use conformational entropy: prepaying entropic costs, re...

Spatial proteomics is helping biologists to uncover how cells work by mapping where proteins operate.

Increasing insights into how sequence motifs in intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) provide functions underscore the need for systematic motif detection. Contrary to structured regions where moti...
