LA JOLLA, CA—Imagine riding a bike. Now imagine riding a bike with an enormous beach ball stuck on your handlebars. That "modification" might change your experience quite a bit. In our cells, ...

Exploring the post-translational modifications of a key protein in Parkinson's disease, researchers uncover potential pathways for future therapies in neurodegenerative diseases in general.

Scientists at the Baylor College of Medicine say they have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease. The method, called ...
