Will more efficient protein folding program advance nanotechnology?

MIT scientists have devised much more efficient procedures for modeling protein folding in order to be able to model the folding of the flood of proteins sequences made available by modern genome sequencing methods.

Proteins designed 'from scratch' function in living cells

A significant fraction of small protein sequences designed only to fold into stable structures can substitute for missing natural proteins.

Feynman's Path to Nanotech (part 5)

Is it Worth Starting Now? Surely, you will say, it would have been wonderful if back in 1959 people had taken Feynman seriously and really tried the Feynman path: we’d have the full-fledged paraphernalia of real, live molecular machinery now, with everything ranging from nanofactories to cell-repair machines. After all, it’s been 50 years. The… Continue reading Feynman's Path to Nanotech (part 5)

Nanotechnology researcher to receive Sackler Prize in Biophysics

Dr. David Baker, who with Dr. Brian Kuhlman was awarded the 2004 Foresight Nanotech Institute Feynman Prize for Theory, will be one of three winners of the 2008 Raymond and Beverly Sackler International Prize in Biophysics. Dr. Baker has been featured on Nanodot posts this year for inviting online gamers to aid in protein design… Continue reading Nanotechnology researcher to receive Sackler Prize in Biophysics

Major nanotechnology milestone: protein catalysts designed for non-natural chemical reactions

A major milestone along the protein design path to productive nanosytems and advanced nanotechnology has been achieved—the design by computational methods of enzymes that catalyze reactions for which biological enzymes do not exist.

Nanotechnology copies biology to produce nanovalve for drug delivery

Researchers have combined several different nanotechnology techniques to introduce a switchable pore-forming protein into a stable polymeric nanocontainer.
