Nobel Prize in Chemistry highlights AI advancements in protein science, transforming structure prediction and design with ...

Proteins are life's engines, powering processes like muscle movement, vision, and chemical reactions. Their environments-water, lipid membranes, or other condensed phases-are critical to their ...

Here, we use a synthetic amphiphile to modulate the membrane mechanical properties of cell-derived vesicles and probe channel activation. Using precise membrane mechanical characterization approaches ...

Aluminum stress is an important factor limiting plant growth in acidic soil, and has significant effects on the growth, development and physiological metabolism of Mentha canadensis. However, the ...

As the capabilities of generative AI models have grown, you've probably seen how they can transform simple text prompts into ...

Proteins are life's engines, powering processes like muscle movement, vision, and chemical reactions. Their environments—water, lipid membranes, or other condensed phases—are critical to their ...

EPFL researchers have developed a computational method to explicitly consider the impact of water while designing membrane receptors with enhanced stability and signaling, paving the way for novel ...

An interview on how advanced techniques can be used to enhance silk fibroin and chitosan for drug delivery applications.

The study carried out by Dr Marta Moreno-Rodríguez in the UPV/EHU group showed that the neurotransmitter receptors in the cannabinoid family and certain choline-containing lipids in the brain ...
