New computer simulations that model every atom of a protein as it folds into its final three-dimensional form support the existence of a recently identified type of protein misfolding. Subscribe to ...

Google DeepMind’s work with AlphaFold has been nothing short of a miracle, but it is computationally expensive. With that in mind, Apple researchers set off to develop an alternative method to use AI ...

Scientists at Harvard have discovered how salts like lithium bromide break down tough proteins such as keratin—not by attacking the proteins directly, but by altering the surrounding water structure.
