Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new structure determination method using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy which shows how different parts of complex ...

Researchers have used cryo- electron microscopy to elucidate for the first time the structure and function of a very small enzyme embedded in cell membranes. This enzyme builds complex sugar trees ...

Within each cell, the power houses called mitochondria continuously break down molecules derived from food to generate energy as well as to produce new molecules that serve as building blocks of cells ...

A new artificial intelligence-powered tool can help researchers determine how well an enzyme fits with a desired target, ...

Researchers participating in the Enzyme Function Initiative (EFI) have used a computationally rich metabolite-docking strategy to sift through a protein’s potential metabolic partners and predict its ...

As sessile organisms, plants have to continually adapt their growth and architecture to the ever-changing environment. To do so, plants have evolved distinct molecular mechanisms to sense and respond ...

Background and aims Aluminum is a major deleterious factor for soybean productivity in acidic soils. Soil enzyme activities and bacteria play important roles in improving the stress tolerance of ...

Focusing on an enzyme in yeast, they demonstrated how contrasts in atomic scale motions impact their function. The method ...

The enzyme transhydrogenase plays a central role in regulating metabolic processes in animals and humans alike. Malfunction can lead to serious disorders. For the first time, structural biologists ...
