چکیده

The folding of a protein is determined by electrostatic force fields radiated the amino acids that compose protein. Folding also fact no two entities can occupy same space simultaneously (steric hindrance). These affects limit rotation bonds making up and thus determine coordinates in atom–atom bonds. history begins with its “birth” ribosome. next occurs resulting active Since determines function, understanding mechanism predicting shape becomes important issues science. three-dimensional as order type X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) cryo-electron microscopy (Cryo-EM) are methods which use to shape. three methodologies considered “gold standards” for determination But these procedures take much 1–3 years. Before advent Artificial Intelligence (AI) several prediction proteins were use. AI, had accuracies only 30–40%. early based on geometry homologous one gold standards. Presently most rapid accurate AI. simple have their shapes accurately predicted methods. “Hacking” running programs additions AlphaFold AI program has improved predictions. author proposed using utilize acid atoms useful tools shapes. We finish complete birth called, spidroin-1 spidroin-2. describe manufacture ribosomes cytoplasm.

Protein Stability, Folding, Disaggregation and Etiology of Conformational Malfunctions

Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...

How I became a biochemist.

It was a sunny September day in a Madrid that had started to grow after years of stagnation, when I entered a modern red brick building at the corner of Velázquez and Joaquín Costa streets. I had an appointment with someone unknown to me, but whom I had been told was an important enzymologist. I was far from imagining that the encounter with that person would determine my future scientific life...

A skeptical biochemist

Social history, especially of bioethics, is bound to be problematic unless it is predicated upon a clear analysis of the substantive ethical issues. At issue in the 1960s was whether research standards should be subjective guidelines, enforced by the researcher's conscience, externally enforced objective rules, or intersubjective standards enforced by review committees (IRBs). In a series of pa...

Protein folds and protein folding.

The classification of protein folds is necessarily based on the structural elements that distinguish domains. Classification of protein domains consists of two problems: the partition of structures into domains and the classification of domains into sets of similar structures (or folds). Although similar topologies may arise by convergent evolution, the similarity of their respective folding pa...
