Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) belongs to the Lentivirus genus, Retroviridae family, enveloped by a lipid bilayer within which the capsid protein encases the viral genome, reverse transcriptase, and integrase proteins, key components for viral re...
Drosophila Ncd proteins are motor proteins that play important roles in spindle organization. Ncd and the tubulin dimer are highly charged. Thus, it is crucial to investigate Ncd-tubulin dimer interactions in the presence of ions, especially ions tha...
INTRODUCTION: Small-molecule Programmable Cell Death Protein 1/Programmable Death-Ligand 1 (PD1/PDL1) inhibition via PDL1 dimerization has the potential to lead to inexpensive drugs with better cancer patient outcomes and milder side effects. However...

Reliable and accurate methods of estimating the accuracy of predicted protein models are vital to understanding their respective utility. Discerning how the quaternary structure conforms can significantly improve our collective understanding of cell ...
We describe an approach for designing high-affinity small molecule-binding proteins poised for downstream sensing. We use deep learning-generated pseudocycles with repeating structural units surrounding central binding pockets with widely varying sha...
Artificial neural networks provide a powerful paradigm for nonbiological information processing. To understand whether similar principles could enable computation within living cells, we combined de novo-designed protein heterodimers and engineered v...
