About this Research Topic
The field of protein function and engineering revolves around the deep understanding of evolutionary data, shedding light on the intricate relationship between protein sequences, their functions, and how this connection has evolved over time. This understanding serves as the cornerstone for advancements in protein engineering.
A central objective within this domain is the prediction of protein function based on sequence and/or structural data. This prediction can be achieved through a variety of computational methods, such as machine learning, deep learning, and molecular dynamics simulations. These approaches allow researchers to decipher the evolutionary data of proteins and apply this knowledge to design novel proteins with specific, tailored functions, finding application in vital areas like drug development and biotechnology.
This Research Topic is an invitation to researchers to share their valuable insights and contributions to the understanding of evolutionary data for protein function and engineering. We eagerly await manuscripts that delve into this critical facet of the protein sciences.
