Pfizer developed a lab-made ingredient that is now found in roughly 90 percent of American cheese, and it does not have to be ...
Researchers at Stanford University have developed a new tool they say dramatically speeds up the study of enzymes. The new tool allows thousands of very small experiments to run simultaneously on a ...
Researchers demonstrate the implementation of a remote laboratory activity to teach students about enzyme kinetics. The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning.
Just because an enzyme has an active site doesn’t mean the rest of the enzyme should be disregarded, as though it were so much dead weight. It influences enzyme function, if only by keeping the enzyme ...
Scientists have long assumed that once the smooth cartilage in a damaged knee wears away, the body has little chance of restoring it. A new line of research is challenging that assumption by showing ...
The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning. Although adapting existing materials was relatively easy for lecture-based courses that revolved around theory, ...
Experiments on fruit flies have revealed that over-expression of an enzyme in the brain can reduce the telltale deposits causally linked with Alzheimer's disease, say US scientists. US researchers ...
A group of researchers from various universities in Abu Dhabi has continued to conduct laboratory experiments for the research project that aims to find a treatment for Covid-19. This is by targeting ...
As with many chemical reactions, the rate of an enzyme-catalysed reaction increases as the temperature increases. However, at high temperatures the rate decreases again because the enzyme becomes ...
The breakdown of a substrate molecule by an enzyme. Other enzymes join smaller substrate molecules together into larger ones. If enzymes are exposed to extremes of pH or high temperatures the shape of ...
