Following the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to the scientists who led the development of artificial intelligence (AI) models for protein design and structure prediction, such as 'AlphaFold,' ...
Shixin Liu is pioneering new ways of studying the tiny proteins that copy and read DNA in living cells. (Credit: Roshni ...
Scientists have discovered a new property of the molecular motors that shape our chromosomes. While six years ago they found that these so-called SMC motor proteins make long loops in our DNA, they ...
DNA robots are emerging as tiny programmable machines that could one day deliver drugs, hunt viruses, and build molecular-scale devices. By borrowing ideas from traditional robotics and combining them ...
New analytical methods developed at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions have increased our ...
When the cells inside your body lay down new tracks of DNA, they work hard not to deviate from the original blueprint—too many mistakes could lead to cancer or other diseases. Biologists synthesizing ...
