AI Predicts Thousands of Protein Links Tied to Diseases
A new report says an AI system has predicted thousands of interactions between proteins found in mitochondria, the parts of cells that help make energy. Some of these predicted links are connected to human diseases. The short report does not say how accurate the predictions are or what researchers will do next.
