An international research team has identified a previously overlooked factor that influences how antibodies neutralize SARS-CoV-2: their mechanical stability under force. Antibodies are key components ...

The lower hinge of immunoglobulin G (IgG), an overlooked part of the antibody, acts as a structural and functional control hub, according to a study by researchers at Science Tokyo. Deleting a single ...

A new study shows how the single-molecule organization of receptors in a cellular context determines the function of antibodies, opening up new pathways for the development of cancer immunotherapies.

Antibodies—proteins that are produced by our immune system to protect us—are crucial for recognizing and getting rid of unwanted substances, or antigens, in our body. Although their role is universal, ...

Findings from a new study conducted by a team of researchers at Dartmouth's Geisel School of Medicine and Thayer School of Engineering and published in Cell Reports Medicine offer new insights into ...

Two-Stage Hierarchical Pre-training Framework of S 2 ALM: In Stage I, the model learns foundational sequence–structure relationships from large-scale protein data, using 1D amino acid sequences and 3D ...
