While E. coli is one of the most studied organisms, the function of 30% of proteins that make up E. coli has not yet been clearly revealed. For this, an artificial intelligence was used to discover ...

Your daily cup of tea might be impacting your liver more than you think. Research suggests moderate consumption, especially ...

Cytochrome P450 enzymes constitute a superfamily of haem-containing proteins that catalyse the oxidation of a wide range of exogenous and endogenous compounds. Their function is fundamental to the ...

Researchers have made a significant advance toward the goal of using bacteria—rather than fossil fuels—to produce ethylene, a ...

Patients with lupus are at increased risk of heart disease. Exposing endothelial cells -- known to protect against heart disease, in part by producing nitric oxide -- to the serum of patients with ...

Enzymes are the molecule factories in biological cells. However, which basic molecular building blocks they use to assemble target molecules is often unknown and difficult to measure. An international ...

Usually enzyme complexes make multistep processes easier by catalyzing sequential reactions in which the product of one enzyme becomes the substrate for the next. In a new finding, researchers report ...

The human body undergoes numerous changes throughout life, with many significant transitions occurring during the decade of the 40s. Among these changes, the decrease in digestive enzyme production ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions report in the journal Nature Communications how a mutation in the enzyme SKD3 can cause a form of a genetic disease known as ...
