Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have reconciled two closely related but contentious mechanisms underlying ...

Food scientists are paving the way for 3D-printed food and pharmaceuticals based on drought-tolerant grain sorghum protein ...

Neuroscientists want to understand how individual neurons encode information that allows us to distinguish objects, like ...

Proteins are the infinitely varied chemicals that make cells work, and science has a pretty good idea how they are made. But ...

Abstract Improving the accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction has been an important task in bioinformatics since it is not only the starting point in obtaining tertiary structure in ...

qFit-ligand builds a parsimonious multiconformer ligand model and outputs both an independent ligand structure and the protein–ligand complex embedded in the rest of the system (containing solvent, ...

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) continues to devastate the global swine industry, yet the ...

Based on several lines of interesting data, the authors conclude that FMRP, though associated with stalled ribosomes, does not determine the position on the mRNAs at which ribosomes stall. Although ...

The minima hopping algorithm (MHOP) to find global minima on potential energy surfaces is used for protein structure prediction. The energy surface of the protein is represented with an all-atom OPLS ...

Prospr is a universal toolbox for protein structure prediction within the HP-model. The Python package is based on a C++ core, which gives Prospr its high performance. The C++ core is made available ...

1 Introduction One of the central dogmas of molecular biology is the sequence-structure-function relationship: the primary sequence of amino acids determines the protein’s three-dimensional structure ...
