Respiratory infections, pink eye, or an upset stomach may seem like unrelated, mild inconveniences, but all of these ailments share one root cause: adenovirus infection. Many of us will encounter some ...
Chemical changes to histones, the proteins that help to pack and organize DNA inside cells, play a key role in determining what genes will be consistently activated over the course of an animal or ...
Lactylation, a recently identified post-translational modification, has emerged as important for immune regulation, tissue repair, cancer cell metabolism, and now, potentially, Alzheimer’s disease. In ...

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 ...
LA JOLLA, CA—Imagine riding a bike. Now imagine riding a bike with an enormous beach ball stuck on your handlebars. That "modification" might change your experience quite a bit. In our cells, ...
Inside every human cell, proteins are constantly being tagged with small chemical modifications after they’re produced. Known as post-translational modifications, or PTMs, these can change how a ...
An AI model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease has been developed. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine (TX, USA) have developed an AI model that reveals how ...
Making proteins for research or therapies often starts with cell-line development. In many applications, genetic engineering is used to optimize a cell line for producing high levels of the intended ...
