Researchers have captured a bacterial enzyme in the act of encircling collagen and pulling a single strand through its ...

The cytochrome P450 enzymes form a vast superfamily of haem‐containing monooxygenases that catalyse the metabolism of a broad spectrum of endogenous substances and xenobiotics. Their dynamic catalytic ...

Collagen is an important protein that helps build the tissues of humans and animals. It is very strong because it is made of ...

The very cells that created us may have a role in saving our lives. Scientists have always been amazed by the energy production system in a sperm’s tail. The system drives flagellar movement and is ...

Collagen is an important protein that helps build the tissues of humans and animals. It is very strong because it is made of three protein strands ...

A mechanism that could help scientists harness enzymes for use in drug discovery has been discovered in a research breakthrough at the University of Birmingham. In a study published in Science ...

Researchers at the University of Bayreuth have, for the first time, deciphered key steps in the biosynthetic mechanism of the ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have discovered important new clues in the mystery of how an ancient enzyme can turn atmospheric carbon into biomolecules, a natural process ...

Nicotiana benthamiana plants in a lab at UC Davis. Plants form new branches when a hormone called strigolactone breaks down. UC Davis plant biologists have now defined the enzymes that break down ...

Humanity continuously emits greenhouse gases and thereby worsens global warming. Increasing research efforts go into developing strategies to convert these gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2), into ...
