Medically reviewed by Allison Herries, RDN Manganese is a trace mineral, meaning your body needs it in smaller amounts than vitamins and major minerals. The body requires manganese for immune function ...

Enzymes catalyze nearly all of the chemical reactions that occur in biological systems. Enzymes are generally proteins but also include catalytic DNA and catalytic RNA. As effective biological ...

Elevated liver enzymes can occur for many reasons. Most often, elevated liver enzymes are temporary and resolve on their own without treatment. Occasionally, elevated liver enzymes require additional ...

The team evaluated more than 4,000 clones before identifying an enzyme S N Ar1.3 that contains six mutations and is 160-fold more active than the parent enzyme.

Mogrosides are mostly degraded in the colon by digestive enzymes and gut microbiota, which cleave the glucose molecules as a source of energy (78). The remaining mogrol and its mono- and diglucosides ...

The engineered enzymes had similar gene-editing efficiency and reduced immune responses compared to standard nucleases in mice. Appearing today in Nature Communications, the findings could help ...

Pathway analysis indicated that these differentially expressed genes were commonly associated with steroid biosynthesis and metabolism-related signaling, such as glycolysis/gluconeogenesis. In ...

Type 2 diabetes and obesity are intimately linked; reduction of bodyweight improves glycemic control, mortality and morbidity. Treating obesity in the diabetic is hampered as some diabetic ...

Temperature affects enzyme-catalysed reactions by influencing the rate at which they occur. For a reaction to occur between an enzyme and substrate the two molecules need to collide. At lower ...

Details of study subjects are provided in online supplementary table S1. Biopsy tissues were disrupted by bead-beating after digesting with mutanolysin and lysozyme enzyme cocktail (Sigma). DNA ...

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an essential coenzyme ubiquitously present in all living cells, playing a pivotal ...
