Researchers have discovered that mutations affect protein stability following remarkably simple rules. The discovery has profound implications for accelerating the development of new treatments for ...
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease. The method, called DeepMVP and ...
Scientists have designed a publicly-available software and web database to break down barriers to identifying key protein-protein interactions to treat with medication. The computational tool is ...
In humans, hundreds of proteins interact in a complex network dubbed the interactome. Those interactions are further complicated when disease-causing mutations are introduced into genes that code for ...
Sickle cell diseases arises from hemoglobin protein mutations. The mutation causes red blood cells to form a sickle shape rather than a round one. One study suggests that this mutation could be ...
A new study found that a single mutation to the hemagglutinin protein of an H5N1 virus isolated from a dairy worker in Texas this spring switched the protein’s binding specificity from avian- to human ...
Mutations on a key SARS-CoV-2 viral protein are linked to extreme immune responses and could offer a novel vaccine target. Since SARS-CoV-2 first appeared, scientists have been examining the structure ...

This rare mutation wipes brain cells, and the trigger is finally known
A vanishingly rare genetic glitch in a single enzyme can erase a newborn’s brain cells in a matter of weeks, leaving doctors with almost no way to intervene. Researchers have now traced that ...
GRB2-SH3 is a protein with 34 amino acids, each which can be mutated into 19 different amino acids. This can result in 17 billion different combinations of the protein if only a single change allowed ...
