Enzymes are essential for life and are one of the most important types of protein in the human body. Studying enzyme kinetics provides information about the diverse range of reactions in the human ...

Researchers imagine autonomous nanosized devices sailing through the blood stream, detecting molecular signs of disease or delivering drugs. Such devices will need nanomotors that can drive and steer ...

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 ...

Enzymes are the molecule factories in biological cells. However, which basic molecular building blocks they use to assemble target molecules is often unknown and difficult to measure. An international ...

Researchers from Tomsk Polytechnic University, together with their colleagues from Czech universities, have proposed a new ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have developed a highly efficient cell-free enzyme system that converts ...

Contrary to what previously thought, enzymes move towards areas with less substrate. They display such behavior despite not having any thinking or sensing capabilities. Contrary to what previously ...

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 ...

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 ...

Measuring Enzyme Kinetic Parameters with the ITC Universal Enzyme Assay Method Enzymes are important in drug discovery and development since they constitute approximately one-half of all known drug ...
