Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They are essential for life, as they play a crucial role in various biological processes, such as digestion, ...

Researchers have captured real-time "molecular movies" showing how an enzyme changes shape during catalysis. The study was published in Nature Communications.

Using a series of more than 1,000 X-ray snapshots of the shapeshifting of enzymes in action, researchers at Stanford University have illuminated one of the great mysteries of life – how enzymes are ...

Enzymology is the study of enzymes and enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Enzymes are biological catalysts that accelerate the rate of biological reactions. They can also perform multiple reactions ...

(Nanowerk News) Reporting in Science ("De novo design of porphyrin-containing proteins as efficient and stereoselective catalysts"), researchers at UC Santa Barbara, UCSF and the University of ...

image: An one-pot chemoenzymatic cascade reaction to synthesize chiral alcohol was realized by using the highly active and selective enzyme-metal-single-atom hybrid as the catalyst. The ...
