pH is a measure of how acidic or alkaline a solution is. The diagram below shows what happens to an enzyme when denaturation occurs. Each enzyme has an optimum pH but it also has a working range ...

Structural and cellular assays and molecular dynamics simulations reveal the mechanism of action of γ ... and structural modeling to show that the enzyme [MoCu]-CO dehydrogenase interacts with ...

Lewy body diseases (LBDs) are a class of debilitating neurodegenerative disorders linked to the abnormal aggregation of the ...

A new study published in Biochemistry sheds light on how bacteria regulate their genes, challenging long-held assumptions ...

And then there is green chemistry. We’ve been looking at enzyme mechanisms. There are many new enzymes in the bacteria at the bottom of the sea and in wastewater and so on that will be able to ...

A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing ...
