Thus, understanding the interplay between structure, dynamics and function of enzymes in solution is an important goal in modern biochemistry. Generations of students have been introduced to this ...
This article was originally published with the title “ The Three-Dimensional Structure of an Enzyme Molecule ” in Scientific American Magazine Vol. 215 No. 5 (November 1966), p. 78 doi:10.1038 ...
However, increasing temperature will cause damage to cells. Liver cells produce the enzyme catalase to speed up the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide. The chemicals that enzymes act on are called ...
Researchers have profiled the molecular structure and features of a key part of the deadly Nipah virus. Experiments in cells showe how changes in the viral polymerase -- a protein involved in viral ...
Researchers have now uncovered the 3D structure of the RNA enzyme SAMURI. Their study provides insights into the development of ribozymes and the evolution of catalytically active RNA.
