Cells operate on rules not vibes, including when on the precipice of persisting or perishing. Yet, with prior research ...

The immune system must maintain a delicate balance to defend against harmful threats while avoiding excessive inflammation.

Explore the role of the cPLA2 enzyme in brain inflammation related to Alzheimer’s disease and its potential as a therapeutic target.

By resurrecting a 3.2-billion-year-old enzyme and studying it inside living microbes, researchers at the University of ...

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.

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 ...

Microbes in our gut produce enzymes that help with our metabolism and influence our health. For example, bile salt hydrolases (BSHs) cleave parts of bile acids, leading to the formation of secondary ...

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