"Zinc fingers" are an exciting protein engineering strategy for activating gene expression. These small proteins have a simple fold—a β-hairpin that nestles against one α-helix—and can recognize a ...

“Sangamo is the world leader in zinc finger protein genomic engineering, and we are very proud of the range and depth of our capabilities in this area,” said Jason Fontenot, Ph.D., Chief Scientific ...

Kim said the system already generates designs for zinc finger proteins with clinical potential, and that both his team in Toronto and the group in New York were surprised by how well it worked. The ...

"Zinc fingers" might sound like the world's worst candy bar, but these human proteins might prove key to treating complex genetically driven diseases. A new artificial intelligence program is poised ...

An artificial intelligence (AI) program may enable the first simple production of customizable proteins called zinc fingers to treat diseases by turning genes on and off. The researchers at NYU ...

An artificial intelligence program may enable the first simple production of customizable proteins called zinc fingers to treat diseases by turning genes on and off. The researchers who designed the ...

RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions (IDR), reports a new study from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Using ...
