[1] When we talk about the structure of proteins, four different structure levels are mentioned: the primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structure. Protein primary structure is the linear ...

In fact, each gene in cellular DNA contains the code for a unique protein structure. Not only are these proteins assembled with different amino acid sequences, but they also are held together by ...

Recent advances in automated protein design algorithms are leading ... being explored is to use parametric representations of secondary structure elements and folds to systematically drive ...

Discover how Microfluidic Modulation Spectroscopy enables precise Higher-Order Structure (HOS) analysis of proteins.

Proteins have four levels of structure: primary (amino acid sequence), secondary (local folding patterns like alpha helices and beta sheets), tertiary (overall 3D shape), and quaternary (assembly of ...

Explore a novel approach of structural analysis using Microfluidic Modulation Spectroscopy, offering insights into protein ...

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 ...

Non-Watson-Crick base pairs can play important roles in RNA secondary structure, protein-nucleic acid interactions, and genetic recoding events. The Role of Base Pairs in Genetics Base pairs play a ...

Neuroscientist, entrepreneur and artificial intelligence pioneer Sir Demis Hassabis, a UCL alumnus who has retained close ...

The rumen microbiota—a symbiont to its host and consists of critical functional substances—plays a vital role in the animal ...

Calcineurin fine tunes the balance between proliferation and differentiation of Notch-responsive progenitors in the pancreatic ducts to enable beta cell regeneration in zebrafish.

This valuable report describes the changing antiviral activity of IFIT1 across mammals and in response to distinct viruses, likely as a result of past arms races. One of the main strengths of the ...
