Current demand for plastics and chemical raw materials is met through large-scale production of ethylene from fossil fuels.

Reactions that can combine more than two molecular pieces in one go are a powerful way to build complexity quickly and save on costly isolation and purification. But the choreography for such a ...

The enzyme PI3K plays a critical role in cell migration. Scientists have long understood this function. But researchers have recently unveiled that a subunit of this enzyme also has the ability to ...

Researchers in Japan have developed a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy technique that captures how enzymes move and ...

Chemists have long dreamed of mimicking nature’s precision, and now, thanks to a repurposed enzyme, they’ve taken a leap closer. Researchers at the University of Basel have successfully combined a ...

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 ...

Inhibiting an overabundant enzyme saved a key component of a brain signaling pathway that is vital for motor control in a new mouse study, bolstering the prospects for the biotechs currently targeting ...
