Every time a eukaryotic cell divides, it faces a monumental challenge: It must carefully duplicate and divide its genetic ...

A new study led by Stephen Withers from the University of British Columbia introduces a technique for engineering much more ...

Specific glycans attached to the GnT-IVa and GnT-IVb can bind to the enzyme’s ligand-binding site, interfering with recognition and binding to the glycosylation proteins’ normal glycoprotein ...

Switching off a single enzyme in immune cells protected mice from obesity, type 2 diabetes, and fatty liver disease in a new ...

Scientists have found that the activity of proprotein covertases, the enzymes that turn-on proteins, is regulated by the location of the enzyme inside the cell. The study uses a novel biosensor, CLIP, ...

Without enzymes, an organism would not be able to survive. It is these biocatalysts that facilitate a whole range of chemical reactions, producing the building blocks of the cells. Enzymes are also ...

Enzymes are biological catalysts that facilitate biochemical transformations. An international team of bioinformatics researchers has developed a new process for predicting Michaelis constants, which ...

A research team led by Prof. Wang Yanli from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed the ...
