Long-lost cannabis enzymes are back, and they pinpoint when the plant first gained the chemistry to make THC, CBD, and CBC.

Deep in your muscles, an enzyme called AMPD1 helps turn chemical fuel into usable energy. When it does not work well, muscles tire faster.

Researchers developed C28, an engineered polymerase that efficiently synthesizes RNA at near-natural speeds with high accuracy. Created through directed evolution, the enzyme also performs reverse ...

Enzymes with specific functions are becoming increasingly important in industry, medicine and environmental protection. For example, they make it possible to synthesise chemicals in a more ...

Using a series of more than 1,000 X-ray snapshots of the shapeshifting of enzymes in action, researchers at Stanford University have illuminated one of the great mysteries of life – how enzymes are ...

A team of biochemists at the University of California, Santa Cruz, has developed a faster way to identify molecules in the ...

Enzymes are proteins that facilitate biochemical reactions by acting as a catalyst, and thus, their expression and activity have a strong influence on the reactions taking place within cells. As ...

Scientists identify a neuronal enzyme linked to amyloid plaque formation, opening new possibilities for targeted Alzheimer’s disease treatment.
