Biophysicists have elucidated why unexpected structures can sometimes arise during protein design. Artificially designed proteins are usually based on building blocks that obey strict rules of ...

ADAMTS2, a member of the ADAMTS zinc metalloproteinase family, is widely recognized for its pivotal role as a procollagen I N-proteinase. This enzyme plays a crucial part in the maturation of ...

The Protein Domain Insertion Optimizer, abbreviated as ProDomino, can forecast which protein domains – like domino tiles – have to be fitted together to engineer a merged protein with new properties.

Enzymes in laundry detergents, insulin for diabetes, and the antibodies and enzymes used in medicine: all of these exist thanks to protein science and engineering. Protein engineering has transformed ...

Completely artificial proteins that produce bioluminescence can serve as a non-invasive method for bioimaging, diagnostics, drug discovery, and more. Bioluminescence is the natural chemical process of ...

To ensure that protein production in our cells runs smoothly, the protein complex NAC slows down the rate of protein synthesis right at the start. An international research team with significant ...

Marigold flower proteins exhibit solubility, emulsifying, and antioxidant properties with potential applications in food ...
