Quantum computing moves closer to drug discovery with enzyme study

Scientists have used the technology to model the behaviour of protein molecules

Scientists have used quantum computing to model the behaviour of protein molecules, in the latest sign the technology is moving towards practical applications in biology and health research.

The project, a collaboration between the Cleveland Clinic and IBM in the US and the Riken Centre for Computational Science in Japan, successfully simulated the way two enzymes interact with potential drugs.

Containing about 12,000 atoms each, they are the largest biological molecules modelled so far with the help of quantum computers.
