Over decades, antibodies have established themselves as a key therapeutic modality for a wide range of diseases. But antibodies as they are found in nature did not evolve to be used as drugs, says ...

On Wednesday, the Nobel Committee announced that it had awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to researchers who pioneered major breakthroughs in computational chemistry. These include two researchers ...

Now, a team of scientists at Gladstone Institutes and the Innovative Genomics Institute led by Jennifer Doudna, PhD, have harnessed computational tools to predict the three-dimensional shapes of ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry is for computational protein design and structure prediction. David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper took home the prize for their work using artificial ...

With the advent of AI-powered protein design tools, protein-based therapeutics may no longer be constrained by the limits imposed by natural selection. Protein-based therapeutics have been ...

Many of the food industry’s most persistent problems exist not in the realm of business and economics – scaling, costs of materials and the like – but in nature itself. Crops, which the food industry ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry goes to researchers who cracked the code for proteins’ structures, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced today (Oct 9). David Baker, a biochemist at the ...

A computational approach by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists promises to make designing T cell-based immunotherapies that target two cancer-related antigens at the same time far easier ...

Computational Chemistry is the study of complex chemical problems using a combination of computer simulations, chemistry theory and information science. Also called cheminformatics, this field enables ...

A graph-based computational tool for detecting previously invisible genetic mutations has been developed. Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA; USA) and the University of ...
