Cytochrome P450 enzymes constitute a superfamily of haem-containing proteins that catalyse the oxidation of a wide range of exogenous and endogenous compounds. Their function is fundamental to the ...

Enzymes are the molecule factories in biological cells. However, which basic molecular building blocks they use to assemble target molecules is often unknown and difficult to measure. An international ...

A multi-enzyme platform is developed for sequence-unconstrained traceless protein synthesis and modification with either synthetic peptides or recombinant proteins, according to a new study out of ...

While E. coli is one of the most studied organisms, the function of 30% of proteins that make up E. coli has not yet been clearly revealed. For this, an artificial intelligence was used to discover ...

Characteristics of Enzymes: Enzymes are proteins and the properties and characteristics they exhibit reflect properties of protein. They are organic catalysts that speed up biological reactions ...

In this corner: the state-of-the-art enzyme function prediction tool … the Bioinformatic Brawler … the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool for proteins … BLASTp! And in this corner: the contender … the ...

Medically reviewed by Qin Rao, MDKey TakeawaysElevated liver enzymes are usually temporary and can resolve by ...

Patients with lupus are at increased risk of heart disease. Exposing endothelial cells -- known to protect against heart disease, in part by producing nitric oxide -- to the serum of patients with ...

Routine blood tests are increasingly detecting elevated liver enzymes, which may signal liver stress or damage. While mild ...

Scientists have discovered a new function in a plant enzyme that could inspire the design of new chemical catalysts. The enzyme catalyzes, or initiates, one of the cornerstone chemical reactions ...
