When it comes to enzymes, protein abundance does not necessarily translate into protein activity: Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation can dramatically alter enzyme function.

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 ...

The development of new therapeutics targeting protein kinases is crucial in the fight against diseases like cancer.

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

Engineered enzymes are poised to have transformative impacts across applications in energy, materials, biotechnology, and medicine. Recently, machine learning has emerged as a useful tool for enzyme ...

Kanazawa University, have captured real-time images showing how a key brain enzyme organizes itself to help memory formation.

Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They are essential for life, as they play a crucial role in various biological processes, such as digestion, ...

Enzymes are the molecular machines that power life; they build and break down molecules, copy DNA, digest food, and drive ...

A new study finds enhanced activity of a specific enzyme drives spinocerebellar ataxia type 14, which suggests inhibiting the enzyme may have therapeutic potential. pinocerebellar ataxias are a group ...
