Heidelberg Researchers Develop AI Model to Forecast Two Proteins for Gene Editing |
|
|
|
A team of researchers from Heidelberg University has developed a new AI tool, called ProDomino, that allows forecasting of two proteins to engineer a functional, adjustable new protein. Led by Prof. Dr. Dominik Niopek from the Institute of Pharmacy and Molecular Biotechnology (IPMB), this research has a broad potential for biotechnology and medical applications.

Scientists Discover that Potato Evolved from Tomato |
|
|
|
An international research team has solved the mystery of the potato's origin, discovering that modern potatoes arose from a natural interbreeding event about 9 million years ago. Published in the journal Cell, the study reveals that ancient tomato plants and potato-like species from South America hybridized, which triggered the evolution of the tuber, the nutrient-storing structure potatoes are known for.
