Researchers at the University of Konstanz have now identified an enzyme that attacks certain polyesters and bioplastics. Its ...
Enzymes are often described as molecular machines that recognize and process specific molecules. However, they are not rigid ...
Crystal structures of an engineered hyperthermophilic sugar dehydrogenase reveal how two mutations relieve a steric barrier ...
A new method developed by researchers at KAIST and Chungnam National University could drastically streamline drug interaction testing—replacing dozens of traditional experiments with just one. The ...
In a development that could reshape how functional foods are designed, researchers have demonstrated that coffee-derived ...
Enzymes are amazing catalysts. These proteins are made of nothing more than a handful of Earth-abundant elements, and they promote a vast array of reactions, convert chemical energy to physical motion ...
Peanut allergy is one of the most serious food allergies and can lead to sudden, life-threatening reactions. Researchers from ...
