Unlike random heteropolymers, natural proteins fold into unique ordered structures. Understanding how these are encoded in amino-acid sequences is complicated by energetically unfavourable non-ideal ...

RNAs play an integral part in all kingdoms of life and mediate critical processes from gene regulation to genomic maintenance and protein synthesis. RNAs also have an amazing diversity in structure ...

Proteins are the basic building blocks of life. They play a critical role in cell function and structure and are involved in transport, communication and metabolism in the body. While just 20 amino ...
