Researchers have captured real-time "molecular movies" showing how an enzyme changes shape during catalysis. The study was published in Nature Communications.
LA JOLLA, CA & JUPITER, FL – December 9, 2016 – New research led by scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) reveals that a human enzyme has changed little from its days as a bacterial ...
University of Groningen scientists observed the characteristics of a single enzyme inside a nanopore. This revealed that the enzyme can exist in four different folded states, or conformers, that play ...
For a promising pathway to treating Alzheimer's patients, "aim here." That's what National Institute of Standards of Technology (NIST) researchers advised collaborators hunting for molecules that, by ...
When RNA malfunctions, it can result in cancer and developmental disorders. Our cells have molecular “machines” that keep RNA “in check” and eliminate RNAs at the right time. Most come equipped with a ...
Canadians learned how plants make a rare natural substance—mitraphylline—with its potential for fighting cancer as a ...
Daniel E. Koshland, Jr., who discovered one of the most important chemical processes guiding the function of cells, has won the 2006 Welch Award in Chemistry. The Houston-based Welch Foundation will ...
Structural biologists show how the DNA-cutting enzyme at the heart of a powerful gene-editing system changes shape to slice through DNA. Martin Jinek at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, and his ...
A human enzyme has changed little from its days as a bacterial enzyme, new research reveals. In fact, the enzyme appears to be unique in its ability to change its shape—and its job in cells—without ...
An approved anti-HIV drug latches to the enzyme already responsible for about 80 percent of the cholesterol elimination from the human brain, report scientists. Obtained with a cutting-edge ...
