Previously, it has been impossible to capture the high-resolution images of nitrogenase, the only enzyme capable of reducing nitrogen into ammonia, during catalytic action. Now researchers report near ...

The controversial process of enhanced enzyme diffusion could enable living systems to resist local equilibrium ...

Scientists have explored different approaches to catalysis, a chemical process that plays an essential role in biological reactions, as well as many industrial applications. Chemical catalysts have ...

In practical applications, nothing determines the success of a biocatalysis project more than the precise match between the enzyme and the substrate. Many industrial projects encounter issues such as ...

Enzymology is the study of enzymes and enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Enzymes are biological catalysts that accelerate the rate of biological reactions. They can also perform multiple reactions ...
