Using a series of more than 1,000 X-ray snapshots of the shapeshifting of enzymes in action, researchers at Stanford University have illuminated one of the great mysteries of life – how enzymes are ...

Life just got more difficult for those fighting antibiotic-resistant superbugs. Researchers at McGill University have ...

It is well known in physics and chemistry that equal charges repel each other, while opposite charges attract. It was long assumed that this principle also applies when enzymes -- the biological ...

A team has used neutron crystallography to image all of the atoms in a radical intermediate of a copper amine oxidase enzyme. They disclosed previously unknown details, such as precise conformational ...

Researchers have made a significant advance toward the goal of using bacteria—rather than fossil fuels—to produce ethylene, a ...

Man prides himself upon his growing mastery over nature, but in the ultimate biochemical analysis nature remains the master of man. With their most sophisticated laboratory glassware and corrosive ...

Enzymes are proteins that facilitate biochemical reactions by acting as a catalyst, and thus, their expression and activity have a strong influence on the reactions taking place within cells. As ...

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 ...

Biochemistry is an important field as it applies to the field of veterinary science. Blood hematological and biochemical parameters are necessary to diagnose disease unmanaged the health of both wild ...
