Ensemble map of protein structure. The team’s approach integrates different NMR data to create a map of how different parts of a molecular structure move. Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo ...

A team of scientists has uncovered a critical mechanism that could pave the way for safer and more effective obesity ...

A team of biochemists at the University of California, Santa Cruz, has developed a faster way to identify molecules in the ...

The authors’ approach is deceptively simple: take an aldehyde dehydrogenase enzyme, which naturally converts aldehydes to acids, and get it to react with an amine instead of water. But actually making ...

Healthy cells are constantly breaking down proteins and building up new ones with the help of enzymes aptly named unfoldases, because they unravel proteins tagged for destruction or recycling. Now, a ...

Oxygen is a vital and constant presence on Earth today. But that hasn't always been the case. It wasn't until around 2.3 ...

Researchers identified a single enzyme doing the work of a trio thought necessary to control a common cellular signaling process being pursued as a therapeutic target. The signaling process, ...

Focusing on an enzyme in yeast, they demonstrated how contrasts in atomic scale motions impact their function. The method promises unprecedented access to the mechanisms by which biomolecules work, ...
