Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 116, No. 15 (April 9, 2019), pp. 7298-7307 (10 pages) Thousands of biochemical reactions with characterized ...

Takeaki Ozawa and his team from the University of Tokyo reveal the metabolic reactions upon activating an enzyme called Akt2. In doing so, they reveal the inner workings of insulin-regulated ...

Researchers defined the structure of a substrate-bound iron 2-oxoglutarate (Fe/2OG) enzyme to explore whether these enzymes could be used to create a wide array of molecules. They saw that Fe/2OG ...

Balazs says that the result is “a material that can take in a chemical and turn it into mechanical work, like eating a ...

Using energy from light to activate natural enzymes can help scientists create new-to-nature enzymatic reactions that support eco-friendly biomanufacturing — the production of fuels, plastics, and ...

An illustration of the density of a water molecule network (blue surface map and red spheres) near the catalytic site (green sticks), projected on the surface of a plant exo-hydrolase, coloured by ...
