Enzyme assays are evolving from traditional spectrophotometric methods to high-throughput, AI-powered platforms that accelerate drug discovery, diagnostics, and sustainable chemistry. Advances like ...

Reporting in Science, researchers at UC Santa Barbara, UCSF and the University of Pittsburgh have developed a new workflow for designing enzymes from scratch, paving the way toward more efficient, ...

Princeton chemists have found a way to make a naturally occurring enzyme take on a new, artificial role, which has significant implications for modern chemistry, including pharmaceutical production.

UC Santa Barbara researchers are building out the repertoire of chemical reactions, using light. In a paper published in the journal Nature, chemistry professor Yang Yang and collaborators at the ...

The Post group has worked to understand the basis of the catalytic power of enzymes using information from crystallography, kinetics, and a description of conformational distributions from molecular ...

Enzymes that catalyze multiple reactions from a reactant to a product often have evolved a way to get intermediates from one active site to another. Researchers report that one bacterial enzyme uses a ...

CHAPEL HILL -- All biological reactions within human cells depend on enzymes. Their power as catalysts enables biological reactions to occur usually in milliseconds. But how slowly would these ...

Catalysis of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is demonstrated in a foil-covered florence flask or fancy bottle. A packet of manganese dioxide catalyst is suspended by a thread inside the neck of ...
