Historically, small molecule drugs have been precisely designed down to the atomic scale. Considering their relatively large complex structures, nanomedicines have lagged behind. Researchers argue ...

This means that the physical structure of a biofilm is vital to the group’s collective health. “On some level, all biological shape and form is ultimately constrained by what’s metabolically feasible, ...

The May issue of Scientific American takes you on a deep-sea mining mission, explores dark comets and examines an invisible ...

Genetics does not get much of a look-in when it comes to the social sciences. That is a legacy from the dark days of eugenics, when researchers like Francis Galton thought genius was hereditary ...

have tackled this problem head-on by designing a class of MOFs that incorporate structures called pillar[5]arene rings into a MOF framework (Fig. 1). Pillar[5]arenes are molecular rings that bind ...

Chirality in organic superconductors was found to induce giant spin-current coupling, mimicking strong spin-orbit effects.

Alkanediols such as 1,6-hexanediol disrupt many phase-separated condensates in cellula and in vitro, but how molecular interactions are perturbed by these compounds remains unclear. This study uses ...

we have focused our efforts on solving the crystal structure of a mouse TCR in complex with an allogeneic MHC molecule. MHC alleles can differ from one another by up to 20 amino acids and most of ...

The atoms in a molecular covalent structure are held together as molecules by strong covalent bonds. There are weak intermolecular forces between different molecules. These weak forces are called ...

Eclipse Foods, the plant-based brand aiming to make products that are indistinguishable from conventional dairy, has announced the launch of its new Non-Dairy Whole Milk. The product is said to ...

When working with sequence which is not in UniProt or when the mapping is not known, sequence-structure mapping can be provided. This includes Molecule-level mapping, i.e. which PDB structures ...

Set up your Python environment by following the instructions provided in the guide found at Python webpage. Make sure to give the python address and to check versions of Python compatible with MATLAB ...
