Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny membrane-bound particles released by cells to transport proteins and other molecules to neighboring cells. Because of this natural delivery ability, EVs have ...

Watching proteins move as they drive the chemical reactions that sustain life is one of the grand challenges of modern ...

Scientists have created an AI system capable of generating artificial enzymes from scratch. In laboratory tests, some of these enzymes worked as well as those found in nature, even when their ...

Two projects at the University of California, Davis, that use artificial intelligence to design and engineer proteins for industrial and health applications have been funded by the U.S. National ...

While protein design is experiencing a period of rapid development and advancement, there’s one particularly challenging class of proteins that’s giving researchers a hard time: enzymes. Now ...

Landfills are overflowing with plastic trash. Serial inventor Jonathan Rothberg’s Protein Evolution found a solution: using AI to create enzymes that can recycle old polyester textiles into a material ...

Cells operate on rules not vibes, including when on the precipice of persisting or perishing. Yet, with prior research ...

An international team of scientists has discovered that a small, low-abundance protein plays a surprisingly big role in assembling carboxysomes—specialized bacterial microcompartments that enable ...
