Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They are essential for life, as they play a crucial role in various biological processes, such as digestion, ...
A single type of chemical structure that shows up again and again in modern medicine is the amide bond that links a carbonyl group (C=O) to a nitrogen atom. They're so ubiquitous that 117 of the top ...
Researchers from North Carolina State University and the University of Texas at Austin defined the structure of a substrate-bound iron 2-oxoglutarate (Fe/2OG) enzyme to explore whether these enzymes ...
Researchers identified AlCas12a, a compact, versatile enzyme that improves CRISPR gene editing and enables faster molecular ...
Scientists explore racemases and propose strategies for finding drugs that target these important enzymes. Scientists from the UK's University of Bath explore racemases -- an important type of enzyme ...
