The key insight with a new strategy for training protein engineering models, called EvoRank, is to harness the natural variations of millions of proteins generated by evolution over deep time and ...

A research team has unveiled a breakthrough in understanding how specific genetic sequences, known as pseudogenes, evolve. Rice University's Peter Wolynes and his research team have unveiled a ...

Proteins are life's molecular workhorses, doing everything from turning sunlight into food to fighting viruses. They are built from 20 different types of amino acid molecules, so even a small protein ...

A new platform combines rational protein design with continuous evolution to discover functional molecules more efficiently. In medicine and biotechnology, the ability to evolve proteins with new or ...

It was the year protein was oversold, overvalued and overhyped. The science of protein has not changed; we just need to ...
