New research from Johns Hopkins Medicine shows that the enzyme biliverdin reductase A (BVRA) plays a direct protective role against oxidative stress in neurons, independent of its role producing the ...
Current demand for plastics and chemical raw materials is met through large-scale production of ethylene from fossil fuels.
That problem is why, even though we’ve had success finding enzymes that break down common plastics like polyesters and PET, they’re only partial solutions to plastic waste. However, researchers aren’t ...
Abstract: Enzymes play a critical role in catalyzing biochemical reactions, and accurately predicting their substrate specificity is essential for applications in drug discovery, metabolic engineering ...
Cynthia Erivo is getting animated. The three-time Academy Award-nominated and Emmy, Grammy and Tony Award-winning actress will star in the animated musical “Bad Fairies,” from Warner Bros. Pictures ...
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 ...
