In a recent study published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence, researchers developed "DeepGO-SE," a method to predict gene ontology (GO) functions from protein sequences using a large, ...

Stanford researchers have discovered a new kind of biomolecule that could play a significant role in the biology of all living things. The novel biomolecule, dubbed glycoRNA, is a small ribbon of ...

Our understanding of biological proteins does not always correlate with how common or important they are. Half of all proteins, molecules that play an integral role in cell processes, are ...

Google DeepMind, Google LLC’s artificial intelligence research unit, today detailed a new version of its AlphaFold neural network for biologists. One of the factors that influence the behavior of a ...

Scientists continue to make surprising discoveries in our own bodies. Stanford researchers have now discovered a new biomolecule hiding in plain sight, which may be common to most types of life and ...

A new study from researchers at the Advanced Science Research Center at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC) reveals that extremely simple peptides can mimic a biological process that protects ...

What is Cryo-Electron Microscopy? Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is a powerful technique used to determine the three-dimensional structure of biological macromolecules, such as proteins and ...

A fluorescent tag, commonly referred to as a label or probe, is a fluorophore that may be used to determine the distribution and quantity of a particular target biomolecule both in vitro and in vivo, ...

If you were to use infrared (IR) transmission microscopy, you would appreciate its chemical quantification abilities—unless your object of study was a hydrated cell. In that case, you might complain ...
