They have paved the way for new treatments against some of the deadliest forms of cancer

Four scientists from Barcelona have created the first map of the vulnerable sites of the KRAS gene, whose mutations, often associated with smoking, cause millions of tumors

Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute, near Cambridge have found ways to treat the drug-resistant surface of the 'Death Star' protein that can fuel tumour growth.

<p>Researchers have comprehensively identified the allosteric control sites found in the protein KRAS.&nbsp;These are highly sought after targets for drug development, representing secret vulnerabilities which can be exploited to control the effects of one of the most important causes of cancer. The study, published in Nature,&nbsp;presents the first complete control map for any protein and is expected to greatly accelerate the discovery of&nbsp;safer, more effective cancer treatments.</p>

Researchers at Google DeepMind claim to have built an AI model that can pinpoint which genetic mutations are likely to cause disease, a new study published in the journal Science reveals. The new model, dubbed AlphaMissense, is an adaptation of AlphaFold, the DeepMind breakthrough that, back in 2020, finally cracked the protein folding problem — […]
