Researchers demonstrate the implementation of a remote laboratory activity to teach students about enzyme kinetics. The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning.

Led by Huimin Zhao, a professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering at the U. of I., the team reported its findings in the journal Nature Communications. "Enzymes have been increasingly used in ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. – University at Buffalo researchers have identified for the first time an enzyme in the foxglove plant that is responsible for the production of compounds needed to make the heart ...

UPTON, NY -- Three new enzyme studies at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory have yielded a new strategy for blocking infection by human adenovirus. The findings, reported ...

The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning. Although adapting existing materials was relatively easy for lecture-based courses that revolved around theory, ...

Tumors can grow quickly only when they’re well fed, so doctors seek ways to starve the malignancies. Realizing that cancer cells consume more methionine than healthy cells do, researchers engineered a ...

Just because an enzyme has an active site doesn’t mean the rest of the enzyme should be disregarded, as though it were so much dead weight. It influences enzyme function, if only by keeping the enzyme ...

A seemingly subtle swap of metals—substituting a zinc ion with a cobalt ion—and a mutation ramps up the overall electric field strength at the active site of an enzyme, Stanford scientists find. The ...

IISc noted that laccase, a natural enzyme used for degrading phenols in industries, is extracted from a fungus called white rot, but production of the enzyme depends on the fungus’ availability. There ...
