Protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a crucial role in countless biological processes, profoundly modulating protein properties on both spatial and temporal scales. Protein PTMs have also emerged as reliable biomarkers for several dis...
Many peptide hormones form an α-helix on binding their receptors, and sensitive methods for their detection could contribute to better clinical management of disease. De novo protein design can now generate binders with high affinity and specificity ...
Proteins can spontaneously tie a variety of intricate topological knots through twisting and threading of the polypeptide chains. Recently developed artificial intelligence algorithms have predicted several new classes of topological knotted proteins...

Inflammation is a biological response to harmful stimuli, aiding in the maintenance of tissue homeostasis. However, excessive or persistent inflammation can precipitate a myriad of pathological conditions. Although current treatments such as NSAIDs, ...
Protein-peptide interactions play a crucial role in various cellular processes and are implicated in abnormal cellular behaviors leading to diseases such as cancer. Therefore, understanding these interactions is vital for both functional genomics and...
BACKGROUND: The most commonly used therapy currently for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases is nonspecific anti-inflammatory drugs, which have various hazardous side effects. Recently, some anti-inflammatory peptides (AIPs) have been found to be a ...
During the COVID-19 pandemic we utilized an AI-driven T cell epitope prediction tool, the NEC Immune Profiler (NIP) to scrutinize and predict regions of T cell immunogenicity (hotspots) from the entire SARS-CoV-2 viral proteome. These immunogenic reg...
Screening peptides with good affinity is an important step in peptide-drug discovery. Recent advancement in computer and data science have made machine learning a useful tool in accurately affinitive-peptide screening. In current study, four differen...
