    Protein is the material basis of all life and the most important carrier for organisms to perform their functions


    From the analysis of the chemical nature, protein is a biological macromolecule formed by the carbon-nitrogen bond-forming reaction of amine-based units

    The team of researcher Wu Bian from the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences has long been engaged in the analysis and design reconstruction of the mechanism of microbial carbon and nitrogen bond-forming enzymes based on calculations


    The PALME platform consists of an upstream activation module and a downstream connection module

      To demonstrate the capabilities of the PALME platform, the team synthesized a series of important pharmaceutical peptides and unnatural proteins

      In recent years, artificial intelligence technology has had a disruptive impact on the field of protein structure prediction and functional design
