The research focused on a specific mutation, known as R336C, that affects the enzyme cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS), which ...

So far, researchers have identified at least 300 enzymes that use the same mechanism as chymotrypsin (Rawlings et al. 2008). As you might expect from their name, the mechanism has something to do ...

Enzyme mechanisms of catalysis play many important roles in the functioning of a healthy body. An enzyme may exist as a multi-subunit complex or it may be associated with a cofactor such as ...

To build proteins, cells rely on a molecule called transfer RNA, or tRNA. tRNAs act like protein-building couriers, where ...

Knowledge of the mechanism of action of AL enzymes when they specifically break the bonds connecting the mannuronic acid-type sugars in this polymer will help to overcome these limitations.

Scientists identified the mechanism by which a sea cucumber molecule inhibits sulfatase-2, an enzyme that’s often upregulated ...

Researchers have identified a molecular mechanism that regulates the activity of N-myristoyltransferases. This enzyme plays a ...

Inhibiting an overabundant enzyme saved a key component of a brain signaling pathway that is vital for motor control in a ...

Enzyme mechanisms can be complex, and getting them to work is tricky. John Timmer – Feb 14, 2025 11:47 am | 53 Credit: LAGUNA DESIGN ...

Scientists have deciphered the structure and functional mechanism of the glucansucrase enzyme that is responsible for dental plaque sticking to teeth. This knowledge will stimulate the ...
