Directed evolution—a process in which a protein library is subjected to repeated rounds of mutation and selection to achieve desired properties—can improve the catalytic performance of computationally ...

Coacervates are dense protein droplets that form spontaneously in cells through a process called phase separation 1. These droplets have key roles in various biological phenomena, but an understanding ...

Designing proteins that can change their structure, and ultimately function, in response to specific molecular signals, a phenomenon known as allosteric regulation, has been a long-standing goal of ...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) presents a significant threat to global public health. As of today, it has caused ...

Understanding the structure of proteins is critical for demystifying their functions and developing drugs that target them. To that end, a team of researchers at Brown University has developed a way ...
