Researchers analyzed the role of NUDT5 and its interaction with other proteins in the folate pathway and in regulating purine synthesis.

A new technique could make it easier to target and inhibit specific enzymes and other proteins in cells and to turn that regulation on and off at will with light. The approach provides researchers ...

Inside every cell, a finely tuned metabolic network determines when to build, recycle, or stop producing essential molecules.

Researchers uncovered 117 enzymes that modify RNA polymerase II, the key enzyme that transcribes DNA into RNA. The study ...

The activity of enzymes in industrial processes, laboratories, and living beings can be remotely controlled using light. This requires their immobilization on the surface of nanoparticles and ...

Researchers have developed a system that connects two neurons by using light-emitting enzymes and light-sensitive ion channels. Our brains are made of billions of neurons, which are connected forming ...

A new study finds enhanced activity of a specific enzyme drives spinocerebellar ataxia type 14, which suggests inhibiting the enzyme may have therapeutic potential. pinocerebellar ataxias are a group ...
