Scientists created a physical model of a human brain and stuck it into a vat of solvent, watching it develop and morph a wrinkly organ. Scientists have discovered exactly how the human brain gets its ...

Anyone who has seen pictures or models of the human brain is aware that the outside layer, or cortex, of the brain is folded in an intricate pattern of “hills”, called gyri, and “valleys”, called ...

The unusual folding pattern of PGK was first observed experimentally over 25 years ago. Whereas most proteins fit the "two-state" model of exponential folding kinetics, the molecules of PGK followed a ...
