AlphaFold is making great progress in protein structure prediction, not only for single-chain proteins but also for multi-chain protein complexes. When using AlphaFold-Multimer to predict ...

Accurately capturing domain-domain interactions is key to understanding protein function and designing structure-based drugs. Although AlphaFold2 has made a breakthrough on single domain, it should be ...

Ph.D. candidate Petr Steindl creates complex structures of light using single photons. As a teenager, he wanted to study Czech poetry but decided on quantum physics. "Looking back, I am glad I ...

In science and engineering, it's unusual for innovation to come in one fell swoop. It's more often a painstaking plod through which the extraordinary gradually becomes ordinary. But we may be at an ...

RNA therapeutics have emerged as one of the most promising new classes of medicines. Eight small interfering RNA (siRNA) ...

Researchers have developed a new two-photon polymerization technique that uses two lasers to 3D print complex high-resolution structures. The advance could make this 3D printing process less expensive ...

We tend to view ourselves and the complex cells that build us as a distinct branch of the tree of life from the compact, ...

A new technique incorporates many different building blocks of cellular metamaterials into one unified graph-based representation. This can be used to make a user-friendly interface that can quickly ...

While the Milky Way has more stars than the brain has neurons, the manifold connections and interactions in the brain make it arguably more complex. Source: theartofsounds2001 | Pixabay The human ...
