A sort of biochemical scaffold for a compound that enables blood pressure to be low, heart bypass grafts to remain open and nerves to communicate has been identified by Medical College of Georgia ...
A new concept of kinetic modules in biochemical networks could revolutionize the understanding of how these networks function. Scientists from the University of Potsdam and the Max Planck Institute of ...
Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, ...
In science as in art, a picture is worth a thousand words. Scientists who study molecular structures have known this ever since James Watson saw Photo 51 and went on to deduce DNA's structure with ...
Scientists have used one of the brightest lights in the Universe to expose the biochemical structure of a 50 million-year-old fossil plant to stunning visual effect. The team of palaeontologists, ...
A wobbly new biochemical structure in one scientist's lab may resemble what enzymes looked like billions of years ago, when life on Earth began to evolve -- long before they became ingredients for new ...
Society’s growing need to understand and respond to problems at the biochemical and molecular levels is boundless. Researchers are rapidly developing powerful tools in order to analyze and model ...
The light of a million suns has exposed the biochemical structure of a 50 million-year-old fossilised plant leaf in a study that could help trace how the physics of life developed. A team of ...
The latest short science news items from C&EN. The team proposes that SAM plays a dual role in the reaction. It donates a methyl group to the enzyme’s cobalamin cofactor and then serves as a base when ...
