What made ribose the sugar of choice for life's code? Scientists at Scripps Research may have cracked a major part of this ...

A new study, published by a team of UBC Okanagan chemistry researchers, is creating a major rethink of how enzymes work. And ...

What if mRNA vaccines could be made more powerful and less irritating? Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania have found a way to do just that—by tweaking a key molecule in the vaccine’s ...

A molecular motor (blue) is rotated by oxidation with an enzyme (green), followed by reduction with ammonia borane (yellow).

A versatile and ultrasensitive colorimetric detection platform has been developed based on the hybridization chain reaction (HCR)-triggered enzyme cascade amplification in this work. The proposal ...

This paper looks at how gamification can be used to learn ELISA (Enzyme Linked Absorbent Assay) concept works. In this paper, we designed and implemented a game that can be used by both students and ...

Thus, assessing the catalytic contribution of enzymes based solely on electrostatics while discounting the presence of thermal fluctuations only provides a static snapshot along the free energy ...

Medically reviewed by Renita White, MD A non-reactive result from an HIV test means that you tested negative for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In most cases, that means you don't have a ...

By using light and enzymes to convert cheap, easy-to-make mixtures into high-value compounds, the method can reduce costs and chemical waste — making it both practical and environmentally friendly.
