Protein Science: Unraveling the Building Blocks of Life
Author(s): Raveli Nirmala*
Protein science stands as a captivating interdisciplinary field that
explores the intricate world of proteins, the fundamental building
blocks of life. Proteins composed of specific sequences of amino acids,
exhibit diverse structures and functions that govern critical biological
processes. This abstract provides an overview of protein science,
encompassing methodologies, applications, and its profound impact on
various industries.
The study of protein structure, conducted through cutting-edge
techniques like X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and cryoelectron
microscopy, unravels the secrets of their 3D arrangement,
revealing vital insights into their functions. Protein folding, a crucial
process ensuring proper functionality, and the consequences of
misfolded proteins, which are implicated in debilitating diseases,
constitute a sign.. View More»
