Research: CANCER Folding Project #15801

Project #15801 overview

Project Summary AI Beta

This project explores how to make proteins called transcription factors bind to DNA better. These proteins control which genes are turned on or off, which is important for many things like fighting cancer and other diseases.

Official Project Description

DNA transcription factor (TF) bind to regions of DNA and either promoting or preventing gene transcription.

We are interested in studying how to improve binding affinity of transcription factors to DNA to increase their activity.

This applies to many diseases, including cancer, but also other biological applications.

In this project, we are investigating DNA-protein interaction between transcription factors and DNA fragment by simulating many mutants of the same transcription factor.
