Protein Folding

Protein folding refers to the process by which a protein transforms from an unordered polypeptide chain into a specific three-dimensional structure, which is crucial for its function. By predicting the folding structure of proteins, researchers can gain deep insights into their biological functions and mechanisms of action, thereby playing a significant role in drug design, disease treatment, and bioengineering. Natural language processing (NLP) technologies provide strong support in interpreting protein sequence data and assisting with structural prediction.
