1. Molecular principles of protein stability and protein-protein interactions
Abstract : Proteins with highly specific binding properties constitute the basis for many important applications in biotechnology and medicine. Immunoglobulins have so far been the obvious choice but recent advances in protein engineering have provided several novel constructs that indeed challenge antibodies. READ MORE

2. Divisive structures : Two billions years of biofilament evolution
Abstract : Our understanding of the functional and regulatory complexity that existed in the eukaryotic progenitor is poor, and investigations have been hindered by our nebulous understanding of where eukaryotes stem from. Recently discovered archaeal lineages with hitherto unseen homology to eukaryotic systems suggest archaea can further our understanding of the eukaryotic cell’s ancestry. READ MORE

3. Protein complexes : assembly, structure and function
Abstract : Most proteins must fold into their native conformations to fulfil their biological functions. Failure of proteins to fold leads to cell pathology and a broad range of human diseases referred to as protein misfolding disease, e.g., Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and type II diabetes.

4. The birth and growth of the protein folding nucleus : Studies of protein folding focused on critical contacts, topology and ionic interactions
Abstract : Proteins are among the most complex molecules in the cell and they play a major role in life itself. The complexity is not restricted to just structure and function, but also embraces the protein folding reaction. READ MORE

5. Decipher protein complex structures from sequence
Abstract : Proteins are essential constituents of biological systems. A profound understanding of protein structure is significant for unraveling the intricate mechanisms of biological processes. The recent development of computational methods using AI technology is revolutionizing the structural biology field. READ MORE
