image: Enzyme substrate specificity involving material conversion processes is pertinent to e.g. biochemistry, metabolic engineering, and environmental remediation; however, it is one of the most ...

FMI researchers have developed a new tool that maps how proteases—enzymes that process proteins—cut their targets. This innovation offers new insight into the highly selective nature of proteases, ...

Alpha-glucosidases are a diverse class of enzymes that catalyse the hydrolysis of α-d-glucosidic linkages at the non-reducing ends of substrates, thereby releasing α-glucose. These enzymes are ...

With over 75 years of enzyme technology expertise, look no further than Worthington, the primary enzyme producer. Our extensive technical-resource library is the definitive source for primary cell ...

Researchers from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, say they have made an important discovery on how cells handle stress. Using bacterial cells, the team found that a damage-repairing enzyme, ...

Researchers have found a new enzyme, taken from Flavobacterium akiainvivens, that has a much broader specificity than the current leading alternatives. This analysis resulted in the identification of ...

Detecting cancer in the earliest stages could dramatically reduce cancer deaths because cancers are usually easier to treat when caught early.

In a new study published in Nature titled, “Custom CRISPR-Cas9 PAM variants via scalable engineering and machine learning,” researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Harvard Medical ...

Researchers have unveiled the crystal structures of UBA6 in complex with either ATP or the ubiquitin-like protein FAT10. These results provide the foundation to study the individual roles of UBA6 ...

Enzymes are the molecular machines that power life; they build and break down molecules, copy DNA, digest food, and drive ...
