Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have developed a new material that harnesses the power of enzymes more effectively.

The rate of enzyme reaction can be affected by substrate concentration. As the substrate concentration increases, the enzyme reaction increases until all of the active sites are occupied by the ...

How does your body speed up these important reactions? The answer is enzymes. Enzymes in our bodies are catalysts that speed up reactions by helping to lower the activation energy needed to start a ...

A new ML-guided platform can design thousands of new enzymes, predict how they will behave in the real world, and test their performance.

Enzymes are crucial to life. They are nature's little catalysts. In the gut, they help us digest food. They can enhance ...

Selection methods focus on evolving “winning” enzymes for a single transformation, limiting the collection of sequence-function relationships, both positive and negative, for further engineering of ...

Protein structure and dynamics are intimately linked with biological activity. Understanding the physical basis for this activity requires knowledge of the equilibrium and kinetic properties of ...

Glycolysis is a central metabolic pathway by which cells obtain energy from sugar. Cancer cells in particular have long been ...

Catalase is a ubiquitous enzyme found in nearly all living organisms, from bacteria to humans. Its primary function is to decompose hydrogen peroxide, a byproduct of metabolic reactions, into water ...

In order to recover valuable substances from CO2, it must be reduced in many individual steps. If electrocatalysis is used ...

Alzheimer’s disease is one of the world’s biggest health problems. Yet, despite the fact millions of people globally are ...
