With a newly developed method that compares AI-generated protein sequences with naturally occurring ones, function- and ...

A team of researchers reconstructed long-extinct proteins of a UV protection system of cyanobacteria. The surprising result: the proteins were already compatible with each other when they first met.

Therapeutic protein design is evolving—and it is doing so in more than one sense of that word. Protein design is being guided by artificial intelligence (AI), which drug developers are using to ...

In a remarkable leap forward for synthetic biology, the AI model ESM3, developed by Evolutionary Scale, has achieved a significant milestone. By simulating half a billion years of evolutionary ...

Viruses need to infect their hosts’ cells in order to replicate. But the hosts tend to not want these pathogens utilizing their resources, killing their cells, and putting their lives in danger. As ...

Integrating protein sequence design and evolutionary sequence conservation to uncover spectral tuning sites in red-light photoreceptors Authors: Oliver Maximilian Eder, Massimo Gregorio Totaro, Stefan ...

The coronavirus genome is 30,000 letters long, encoding more than two dozen different proteins that enable the virus to hijack our cells. Of these, spike gets all the glory and infamy; it is the ...

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas that both traps heat and destroys ozone, reducing Earth's protection from ...

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 ...
