Accurate estimation of PMI is vital for identifying suspects and providing clues to resolve the case.

Due to advances in GS, the importance of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) as functional contributors to the pathophysiology of MD is being unveiled.

Overall, AlphaFold 3, integrating molecular dynamics principles into its deep learning framework, directly predicted RNA 3D structures from RNA primary sequence inputs, even accepting several common post-transcriptional modifications, which closely aligned with the experimentally determined structures.
