Creating artificial systems that mimic the functioning of cells is one of the goals of what is known as synthetic biology.

A team at the Center for Research in Biological Chemistry and Molecular Materials (CiQUS) at the University of Santiago de Compostela has developed a more flexible chemical strategy to create ...

Researchers at Google DeepMind have developed AlphaFold 3, an AI model that can predict the structure of and interactions between biological molecules including proteins, DNA and RNA, and small ...

Certain biological molecules are able to move in a “quasi-mechanical” way, and these can be considered to be molecular machines. These are seen in many natural processes, and from this, ...
