Radial Doubles Down on Dynamic Structural Biology with ‘Prism’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last summer, Astera’s life science division, Radial, launched a project aiming to reimagine how biologists study protein motion experimentally.Proteins are in constant motion, and this motion drives their function. But today, much of structural biology only captures static snapshots, representing the most common form a protein adopts. This is why we can predict a protein’s fold but still cannot predict whether a mutation will break a protein or how a drug may affect its target. These answers exi
