The positions of these water molecules are often important for understanding protein flexibility and the ability of drug-like molecules to influence protein structure and function. In this study, ...

Researchers from the Advanced Science Research Center at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC) designed an experiment to test whether performing X-ray crystallography imaging using elevated temperature ...

Scientists have for the first time looked deep into the protein structure that may determine our vision - and discovered that it is much more dynamic than previously thought. RBP3 not only changes its ...

Solving puzzles experimentally is enjoyable for many researchers. However, there are some puzzles that force even the best puzzlers to nominate modeling over experimental approaches to help decipher ...

The sensory receptor PIEZO1 changes shape in response to mechanical stimuli. The super high-resolution microscopy technology used in this discovery is a breakthrough in enabling protein structures to ...
