Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism—a novel genomically recoded organism ...

Scientists have long believed they understood how life’s genetic code evolved, but new research upends that assumption. By ...

Proteins are the workhorses that keep our cells running, and there are many thousands of types of proteins in our cells, each ...

Researchers developed a technique to gain a deeper understanding of ribosome function and their cooperative behaviors.

The shape of a protein is dictated by its amino acid sequence. While sequences may mutate, the overall structure often remains similar to preserve function. The researchers hypothesized they could ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have developed an AI-based platform that designs short proteins, termed peptides, ...

Researchers developed ProtGPS, an AI tool that predicts protein localization in cells and how mutations affect disease. The ...

The human genome encodes potentially thousands of tiny proteins that were previously overlooked. The search is on to find out ...

Two separate research teams have found ways to create short chains of amino acids, termed peptides, for the purpose of ...

Introduction Definition of Peptides Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, typically consisting of 2 to ...
