Scientists have long assumed that once the smooth cartilage in a damaged knee wears away, the body has little chance of ...

Researchers have made a major breakthrough earlier this year in the field of evolutionary conservation of molecular dynamics in enzymes. Their work points to potential applications in health, ...

In this corner: the state-of-the-art enzyme function prediction tool … the Bioinformatic Brawler … the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool for proteins … BLASTp! And in this corner: the contender … the ...

With over 75 years of enzyme technology expertise, look no further than Worthington, the primary enzyme producer. Our extensive technical-resource library is the definitive source for primary cell ...

University of Delaware biochemist Jeff Mugridge is trying to figure out how so-called mRNA eraser enzymes work in our cells, why those erasers can sometimes misbehave and lead to cancer, and how ...

In biology, enzymes have evolved over millions of years to drive chemical reactions. Scientists have now derived universal rules to enable the de novo design of optimal enzymes. As an example, they ...

A new artificial intelligence tool can predict the functions of enzymes based on their amino acid sequences, even when the enzymes are unstudied or poorly understood. The researchers said the AI tool, ...

Once thought of as having one simple job within cells, researchers continue to learn more about the importance of organelles called lysosomes. An organelle is a small structure in a cell that is ...

Scientists first observed the biological phenomenon of restriction and modification in the 1950s, but they did not identify and isolate restriction enzymes until the late 1960s. 3 In 1970, Hamilton ...

Liver enzymes can fluctuate due to factors like hormonal changes or reactions to medications. Fluctuations are often temporary, but long-term changes may indicate a condition that requires medical ...
