Image: Co-evolved mutations in genetic sequences that code proteins show researchers how a protein is likely to fold and what forms it may take as it carries out its function. Scientists from Rice University used the technique called direct coupling analysis in combination with structure-based models to find a previously hidden conformation of a molecular motor responsible for degrading misfolded proteins in bacteria (Photo courtesy of Faruck Morcos/Rice University).

Big Data’s Direct Coupling Analysis Reveals Clues About Molecular Protease Machines

Researchers have merged genetic and structural data in a Big Data attempt to solve one of the most fascinating mysteries in biology: how proteins perform the regulatory processes in cells upon which all life depends.  More...
