Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory have produced the first atomic-level structure of an enzyme that selectively cuts carbon-hydrogen bonds—the first and most ...

X-ray crystallography reveals how the rare enzyme D-apionate oxidoisomerase accommodates two distinct reactions in one active ...

In biology, a group of enzymes called 2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenases is responsible for catalyzing a wide range of ...

The EC numbers (Enzyme Commission numbers) serve as a widely used classification system for enzymes based on seven reaction types. However, a very ...

SANTA CRUZ, CA — Researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, have determined the three-dimensional structure of an RNA enzyme, or “ribozyme,” that carries out a fundamental reaction ...

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, ...

The structure of a key enzyme involved in protein production is revealed by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Using cryo-EM, researchers at Goethe University (Frankfurt, Germany) shed light on ...

Most bacteria live outside human cells. Mycoplasma penetrans does not. Instead, it inserts a spear-like structure into a ...
