From sequence to structure: A fast track for RNA modeling

In Biology 101, we learn that RNA is a single, ribbon-like strand of base pairs that is copied from our DNA and then read like a recipe to build a protein. But there's more to the story. Some RNA ...

Using biomimetic polymers to understand and control sequence/structure/function relationships and achieve rational design of biomineralization

Peptoids, or n-substitued glycines, are complex and diverse oligomeric structures which have been explored for a number of biomimetic applications including drug delivery, surfactants, and catalysts.

Predicting protein function from sequence and structure

'Inheritance through homology' is the most common and generally more accessible approach to function prediction, but orthology should be established where possible to improve confidence in predictions ...

New deep-learning approach predicts protein structure from amino acid sequence

A scientist has used a form of artificial intelligence known as deep learning to predict the 3D structure of effectively any protein based on its amino acid sequence. This new approach for ...

MRes - From Sequence to Structure: Building an AI Model for G4 DNA Prediction

G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical nucleic acid structures formed by guanine-rich DNA sequences and stabilized by Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds and monovalent cations. These structures are biologically ...
