Natural enzymes have an exquisite ability to selectively and efficiently catalyze biochemical processes. Scientists have a great interest in harnessing that ability and putting these protein catalysts ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT), characterized by its non-invasive nature and precise spatiotemporal selectivity, has garnered considerable attention for its applications in tumor and anti-infection ...

To be used industrially, enzymes usually need to undergo some surgery before they can become chemical workhorses. It may take a nip here, or a tuck there, to sculpt their active site into a shape that ...

The conduction mechanism of Escherichia coli AmtB, the structurally and functionally best characterized representative of the ubiquitous Amt/Rh family, has remained controversial in several aspects.

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” ...

Enzymes are used extensively to produce complicated natural compounds and reducing the environmental footprint of chemical manufacturing, and hence it is important to know how they function. Enzymes ...

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 ...

Unprecedented images of cancer genome-mutating enzymes acting on DNA provide vital clues into how the enzymes work to promote tumor evolution and drive poor disease outcomes, according to University ...
