Usually enzyme complexes make multistep processes easier by catalyzing sequential reactions in which the product of one enzyme becomes the substrate for the next. In a new finding, researchers report ...

Researchers have identified a new function of a well-known enzyme: the signal peptidase complex is responsible for the quality control of membrane proteins. The discovery of this new function for a ...

University of Delaware biochemist Jeff Mugridge is trying to figure out how so-called mRNA eraser enzymes work in our cells, why those erasers can sometimes misbehave and lead to cancer, and how ...

Cell Biology & Physiology students from UNC-Chapel Hill come to Southern Wake Campus to deliver a STEM talk on enzymes to students. Free snacks and cool swag are available, and door prizes will be ...

Researchers synthesize enzymes to learn more about a signaling protein involved in the development of muscle, bone and blood in vertebrate embryos. A team of bioengineers at the University of Texas at ...

Ubc13, a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (Ubc), requires the presence of a Ubc variant (Uev) for polyubiquitination. Uevs, although resembling Ubc in sequence and structure, lack the active site cysteine ...

Chemistry researchers at the University of Utah have uncovered an enzyme, dubbed PapB, that can "tie off" therapeutic ...
