Maestri d'Italia: Seeing the invisible - May 2020

13/05/2020. Risorgimento Digitale - Maestri D'Italia: a series of lectures by 30 Italian experts on a variety of topics.

Silvia Onesti: Vedere l'invisibile.

Images of the DNA double helix or coronavirus are now an integral part of our life (we can find them as emoji!) But how do we know the shape of a protein, a virus, or DNA?

Silvia Onesti: Vedere l'invisibile

Le immagini della doppia elica del DNA e, in questi giorni, del coronavirus con le sue “spike” sono oramai parte integrante del nostro patrimonio visivo, fino a essere diventate icone, o addirittura emoji. Ma come facciamo a sapere esattamente quale è la forma di una proteina, un virus, un frammento di DNA? La biologia strutturale ci permette di visualizzare a livello atomico le molecole della vita. Queste conoscenze non solo ci consentono di ricostruire il complesso e dinamico network di interazioni che dirigono e modulano i processi fondamentali della vita, ma hanno anche un ruolo decisivo per la ricerca di nuovi farmaci e nuovi vaccini.
