Scientists of South Ural State University are studying enzymes that can break down stress hormones. They are also finding a way to regulate the activity of these enzymes. It will help to cure diseases ...

Enzymes are amazing catalysts. These proteins are made of nothing more than a handful of Earth-abundant elements, and they promote a vast array of reactions, convert chemical energy to physical motion ...

Researchers at the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Karolinska Institutet have captured the first detailed molecular snapshots of human polynucleotide phosphorylase (hPNPase) in action, ...

Enzymes are proteins that facilitate biochemical reactions by acting as a catalyst, and thus, their expression and activity have a strong influence on the reactions taking place within cells. As ...

Actin cytoskeleton is essential for eukaryotic cells. To exert its countless cellular functions, actin undergoes dynamic remodeling orchestrated by the large number of actin-interacting factors.

Imagine if our bodies could grow new organs throughout our entire lives. Plants do this constantly, thanks to tiny, powerful ...
