Enzymes, nature's impressive catalysts, play indispensable roles in numerous fundamental biological processes. Understanding the intricate design of enzymes down to the atomic level is the key to ...

Chemists at Umeå University have succeeded in mapping structures and functions of a transient enzyme state. By modifying the enzyme adenylate kinase, researchers were able to isolate the molecule and ...

With the great insights on enzyme catalytic mechanisms, biosynthesis, structure, and the rapid development of physical and chemical technology, the rapid rise of molecular enzymology and enzyme ...

Kanazawa University, have captured real-time images showing how a key brain enzyme organizes itself to help memory formation. Their study, published in Nature Communications, reveals that the enzyme ...

Thousands of different chemical reactions must happen inside every cell, every second in order for them to function. If these cellular reactions happen too slowly the cell may die. If the cell is part ...

While most enzymatic activity is conducted through chemical binding interactions between molecules, in some cases, the mere presence of an enzyme can affect intracellular functions. While exploring ...

Current demand for plastics and chemical raw materials is met through large-scale production of ethylene from fossil fuels. This makes it necessary to search for new, renewable processes. Using ...
