Instead of the enzyme mechanism described in biochemistry text-books, hen lysozyme hydrolysis was postulated to occur by a ring-opening mechanism based on substrate interactions defined by the active ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have discovered a novel mechanism that recognizes and eliminates "bad" transcriptional ...

Redox enzymes are proteins that catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions, which involve the transfer of electrons between ...

Researchers from the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology and the Department of Chemistry at The University of Manchester ...

With an interdisciplinary approach, Yang’s lab is able to reprogram and reinvent nature’s biosynthetic machinery to catalyze reactions that are well beyond the native biochemical landscape. He has ...

Researchers from the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology and the Department of Chemistry at The University of Manchester have described a novel enzyme that could significantly change the way ...

A research team has discovered how the 'Shethna protein II' protects the nitrogen-fixing enzyme nitrogenase from damage. The oxygen sensor protein could help to make nitrogenase usable in ...

A recent research conducted by members of Qatar University’s (QU) Health Sector delineated the mechanism that a mutation in a gene encoding for an important protein can lead ...
