A research team led by the University of Oxford's Department of Engineering Science has shown it is possible to engineer a quantum mechanical process inside proteins, opening the door to a new class ...

The so-called magneto-sensitive fluorescent proteins or MFPs, overcome key limitations of previous biological candidates for quantum sensors.

In a world first, a research team led by the University of Oxford’s Department of Engineering Science has shown it is ...

Researchers at Scripps have created T7-ORACLE, a powerful new tool that speeds up evolution, allowing scientists to design and improve proteins thousands of times faster than nature. Using engineered ...

The process of evolution usually takes thousands, millions or even billions of years. But researchers have found a way to condense it into a matter of minutes using a method called 'directed evolution ...

Thought too hard to do, a new platform evolved proteins in mammalian cells, which could help researchers design drugs that work better in humans. “There are many, many examples, both published and ...

The ability to evolve proteins with new or improved functions provides powerful applications for the development of selective, high-affinity antibodies, enzymes with new catalytic properties, and the ...

The Molecular Evolution, Protein Engineering, and Production (MEPEP) Facility, part of the Purdue Institute of Inflammation, Immunology and Infectious Disease (PI4D), is a new discovery resource ...
