Researchers have made a major breakthrough earlier this year in the field of evolutionary conservation of molecular dynamics in enzymes. Their work points to potential applications in health, ...

Scientists have prototyped a new method for 'rationally engineering' enzymes to deliver improved performance. They have devised an algorithm, which takes into account an enzyme's evolutionary history, ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new structure determination method using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy which shows how different parts of complex ...

Researchers at the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Karolinska Institutet have captured the first detailed molecular ...

Gene editing is one of the latest breakthroughs in biology. The widely known CRISPR-Cas gene editing system provided prokaryotes (organisms that lack cell nuclei) an immunity against foreign DNA.

This story is one in a series marking International Women and Girls in Science Day. Join us as we celebrate some laboratory leaders taking research to new heights. Enzymes are the fundamental stuff of ...

For the first time, the structure of a DNA enzyme complex implicated in infertility and cancer has been obtained using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). A collaboration of researchers, led by ...
