Recent advances in protein design and protein structure prediction have questioned whether experimental structural biology still has a role to play in research today. The article by Panjikar and Weiss [(2025). IUCrJ, 12, 307–321] partially answers this question and alludes to a role still to be played by structural biology. Several properties of peptide bonds, likely important for function, are described that are absent in protein design and predicted protein structures, and that have largely been overlooked by the structural biology community.
期刊介绍:
IUCrJ is a new fully open-access peer-reviewed journal from the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr).
The journal will publish high-profile articles on all aspects of the sciences and technologies supported by the IUCr via its commissions, including emerging fields where structural results underpin the science reported in the article. Our aim is to make IUCrJ the natural home for high-quality structural science results. Chemists, biologists, physicists and material scientists will be actively encouraged to report their structural studies in IUCrJ.
