Peptides are an emerging modality for developing therapeutics that can either agonize or antagonize cellular pathways associated with disease, yet peptides often suffer from poor chemical and physical stability, which limits their potential. However,...
Biomolecular dynamics simulation is a fundamental technology for life sciences research, and its usefulness depends on its accuracy and efficiency. Classical molecular dynamics simulation is fast but lacks chemical accuracy. Quantum chemistry methods...
The AlphaFold Protein Structure Database (AFDB) contains more than 214 million predicted protein structures composed of domains, which are independently folding units found in multiple structural and functional contexts. Identifying domains can enabl...

Dynamic protein structures are crucial for deciphering their diverse biological functions. Two-dimensional infrared (2DIR) spectroscopy stands as an ideal tool for tracing rapid conformational evolutions in proteins. However, linking spectral charact...
AlphaFold2 (AF2) models have had wide impact but mixed success in retrospective ligand recognition. We prospectively docked large libraries against unrefined AF2 models of the σ and serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptors, testing hundreds of new molecules a...
De novo design of complex protein folds using solely computational means remains a substantial challenge. Here we use a robust deep learning pipeline to design complex folds and soluble analogues of integral membrane proteins. Unique membrane topolog...
Human proteins are crucial players in both health and disease. Understanding their molecular landscape is a central topic in biological research. Here, we present an extensive dataset of predicted protein structures for 42,042 distinct human proteins...
We apply methods of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to protein dynamic bioinformatics. We rewrite the sequences of a large protein data set, containing both folded and intrinsically disordered molecules, using a representation developed ...
Identifying optimal reaction coordinates for complex conformational changes and protein folding remains an outstanding challenge. This study combines collective variable (CV) discovery based on chemical intuition and machine learning with enhanced sa...
The prediction of three-dimensional (3D) protein structure from amino acid sequences has stood as a significant challenge in computational and structural bioinformatics for decades. Recently, the widespread integration of artificial intelligence (AI)...
