Abstract:
The ABC Consortium has been generating nucleic-acids MD trajectories for more than 20 years. This brief comment highlights the importance of this data for the field, which triggered a number of critical studies, including force-field parameterization and development of new coarse-grained and mesoscopic models. With the world entering into a new data-driven era led by artificial intelligence, where data is becoming more essential than ever, the ABC initiative is leading the way for nucleic acid flexibility.

ABC Transporters: Exporter
ABC Transporters: Importer
In bacteria, based on the number of transmembrane helices and the chemical nature of their substrates, the ABC importers can be divided into three types:
The Antenna Complex
The ABO Blood Group
Antigens in the ABO Blood Group System
Antigens are substances that can trigger an immune response, leading to the production of antibodies. In the ABO blood group system,...

Interaction domains in cell signaling
Interaction domains recognize exposed features of their binding partners containing post-translationally modified sequences,...
Antibody Structure and Classes
The basic structure of an antibody consists of four protein chains: two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains. These chains are held together by disulfide bonds and other non-covalent interactions, forming a Y-shaped structure.
