Enzymes are proteins that can change shape and therefore become active or inactive. An activator molecule (green pentagon) can bind to an enzyme (light green puzzle shape) and change its overall shape ...

Scientists have long struggled to target proteins that lack defined structure and are involved in cancer, neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's disease, and other serious illnesses. Now, a new ...

Researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California and their colleagues have found that two enzymes involved in the production of amyloid-ß protein—the protein that ...

A study presented at Digestive Disease Week presented encouraging results for aspergillus niger-derived prolyl endoprotease. Gluten-sensitive patients ingesting the enzyme broke down small amounts of ...
