Gifu University scientists have uncovered how a brain-specific enzyme reshapes protein-linked sugar chains to facilitate the ...

Researchers use synthetic biology to reverse-engineer modern nitrogenases and rebuild their possible ancestors, in an effort to better understand the origins of life on Earth and beyond.

An approach that identifies, and predicts compatibility between, chemical and enzyme-sequence spaces can streamline and reduce risk in the discovery of enzymes that can catalyse a desired reaction.

Cannabis has been part of human culture for thousands of years, yet the molecular machinery that gives the plant its mind-altering and medicinal power has remained surprisingly obscure. Now a team of ...

While protein design is experiencing a period of rapid development and advancement, there’s one particularly challenging class of proteins that’s giving researchers a hard time: enzymes. Now ...
