Enzyme mechanisms of catalysis play many important roles in the functioning of a healthy body. An enzyme may exist as a multi-subunit complex or it may be associated with a cofactor such as adenosine ...

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — A new artificial intelligence-powered tool can help researchers determine how well an enzyme fits with a desired target, helping them find the best enzyme and substrate combination ...

This article shows how enzymatic activity can be effectively determined by means of the Eppendorf BioSpectrometer. The preliminary measurements were carried out by utilizing the “single λ-continuous” ...

Halogenated compounds are widespread in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. But the reagents used to make them can produce hazardous waste and mixtures of compounds. Enzymes can provide a ...

Researchers have captured real-time "molecular movies" showing how an enzyme changes shape during catalysis. The study was published in Nature Communications.

Introduction Have you ever wondered how all the food that you eat gets digested? It is not only the acid in your stomach that breaks down your food—many little molecules in your body, called enzymes, ...

Although putting together the words "random" and "biased" can seem like a clash, these are the attributes that describe how bacteria navigate and fetch their food. They follow a random path, but ...

Epigenetic drug discovery and development programs have attracted much attention and investment in recent years. This is driven by the potential to develop novel therapeutic strategies that can ...

A new artificial intelligence-powered tool can help researchers determine how well an enzyme fits with a desired target, helping them find the best enzyme and substrate combination for applications ...

Contrary to what previously thought, enzymes move towards areas with less substrate. They display such behavior despite not having any thinking or sensing capabilities. Contrary to what previously ...
