Last year DeepMind put forward a compelling a solution to a 50-year-old science problem, demonstrating how its AlphaFold AI could predict the 3D structures of unique proteins, laying the groundwork ...

On Wednesday, the Nobel Committee announced that it had awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry to researchers who pioneered major breakthroughs in computational chemistry. These include two researchers ...

Scientists organize millions of proteins by shape, as predicted by AI, revealing 700,000 new families and some shapes unique ...

Protein design researchers have created a freely available method, RoseTTAFold, to provide access to highly accurate protein structure prediction. Scientists around the world are using it to build ...

Programs built by Google’s artificial intelligence company DeepMind have beaten humans playing chess, Go, and some Atari computer games. Biologists and computer scientists say the company has now done ...

In the wee hours of an October morning, David Baker, a protein biologist at the University of Washington (UW), received the most-awaited phone call in a scientist’s career. Halfway around the world, ...

To understand cellular processes, scientists have to study proteins, which play critical roles in virtually every aspect of biology. Proteins are made up of amino acids, and while the sequence of a ...

The prediction of protein structure with the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI–ML) is poised to transform how and when three-dimensional (3D) biostructure information is used in ...

As people around the world marveled in July at the most detailed pictures of the cosmos snapped by the James Webb Space Telescope, biologists got their first glimpses of a different set of images — ...

Using artificial intelligence and deep learning, researchers have developed a neural network that 'hallucinates' the structures of new protein molecules. The scientists made up completely random ...

The company has already used its protein-folding AI, AlphaFold, to generate structures for the human proteome, as well as yeast, fruit flies, mice, and more. Back in December 2020, DeepMind took the ...
