The development of new materials is a time-consuming and resource-intensive process. Deep learning has emerged as a promising approach to accelerate this process. However, accurately predicting crystal structures using deep learning remains a signifi...
Protein sequence design in the context of small molecules, nucleotides and metals is critical to enzyme and small-molecule binder and sensor design, but current state-of-the-art deep-learning-based sequence design methods are unable to model nonprote...
The NLRP3 inflammasome plays a central role in the pathogenesis of various intractable human diseases, making it an urgent target for therapeutic intervention. Here, we report the development of SN3-1, a novel orally potent NLRP3 inhibitor, designed ...
Structure-based virtual screening is a key tool in early drug discovery, with growing interest in the screening of multi-billion chemical compound libraries. However, the success of virtual screening crucially depends on the accuracy of the binding p...

When solving a structure of a protein from single-wavelength anomalous diffraction X-ray data, the initial phases obtained by phasing from an anomalously scattering substructure usually need to be improved by an iterated electron-density modification...
Here, a machine-learning method based on a kinetically informed neural network (NN) is introduced. The proposed method is designed to analyze a time series of difference electron-density maps from a time-resolved X-ray crystallographic experiment. Th...

Model building and refinement, and the validation of their correctness, are very effective and reliable at local resolutions better than about 2.5 Å for both crystallography and cryo-EM. However, at local resolutions worse than 2.5 Å both the procedu...
In eukaryotic cells, membrane proteins play a crucial role. They fall into three categories: intrinsic proteins, extrinsic proteins, and proteins that are essential to the human genome (30% of which is devoted to encoding them). Hydrophobic interacti...
