Proteins can be classified into groups according to structural and functional similarity. These groups often contain well-characterized proteins whose function is known. Thus, when a novel protein is identified, its functional properties can be proposed based on the group to which it is predicted to belong.
Nuclear Pore Complex Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) mediate the transport of proteins and molecules into the nucleus of cells. Dynamic structural changes enable this movement. This 3D printed molecular model of NPC 7R5K captures the pore in its constricted state. (more…)
Poliovirus Type 2 This is 3D protein model of the Poliovirus Type 2 3D printed in full-color sandstone or plastic and colored to denote the locations of active residues targeted by antibodies. Despite the Type 2 wild poliovirus being declared eradicated in September 2015, a vaccine-derived mutated version of the vaccine-virus has reemerged in…
Serotonin receptors are activated by the neurotransmitter like serotonin, which acts as their natural ligand. Other endogenous small molecules, like N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), competitively bind Serotonin Receptors producing transcendental psychedelic effects. (more…)

The SARS-CoV2 Delta Plus variant was first reported in India. This new variant, was shown to carry mutation K417N on its receptor-binding domain (RBD), a mutation previously reported in the Beta variant. Experts believe it contributes to immune evasion in SARS-CoV-2 and synergistic with mutation L452R, another mutation known to also contribute to immune evasion.…
