how motor proteins transduce chemical energy into physical motion? And, how does the structure and dynamics of membrane proteins affect their functions? We developed a single-molecule optical-trapping ...

But how does such coordinated motion happen? The universal answer, it turns out, is molecular motors: proteins that convert the energy in adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cellular food source, to ...

These highly efficient and specialized proteins are responsible for a wide range of essential cellular processes ... artificial molecular machines and nanodevices that mimic their functions and ...

A team developed the catGRANULE 2.0 ROBOT, a machine-learning algorithm to predict protein behavior linked to ...

In another study using this technology, we actually have to unfold a protein twice: once before it can go through the nanopore via electrophoretic force and once before it can come back up. There is ...

Yet, it is in this disordered environment that biological motors, proteins with complex structures ... with a polymer network to form an active hydrogel. The molecular motors used are composed of a ...

the approval of molecular glues developed de novo against undruggable proteins has not been achieved, and faces significant scientific hurdles. This is the challenge that drew together pioneers in ...

A research group led by Gian Gaetano Tartaglia, Principal Investigator at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT), ...
