Protein Biophysics

Protein biophysics is the study of the physical principles and forces that govern protein structures and behaviors in biological systems. It examines how proteins fold, interact, and function within cells, using techniques from physics, chemistry, and biology. In the context of systems biophysics, it helps us understand how proteins contribute to complex biological processes, such as signaling pathways and cellular networks, by analyzing their dynamic properties and interactions. This interdisciplinary approach provides insights into health, disease, and the development of new therapeutic strategies.
