An enzyme is a type of protein found within a cell. Enzymes create chemical reactions in the body, and can actually speed up the rate of a chemical reaction to help support life. Enzymes are produced ...

In addition to their canonical roles in glycolysis, recent studies gradually uncovered some non-metabolic functions of glycolytic enzymes in tumorigenesis (Table 1), providing important insights into ...

UTA biochemists are mapping the function of specific enzymes which may facilitate development of new drugs to fight bacterial infection, cancer and potentially neurodegenerative diseases like autism, ...

Researchers participating in the Enzyme Function Initiative (EFI) have used a computationally rich metabolite-docking strategy to sift through a protein’s potential metabolic partners and predict its ...

Usually enzyme complexes make multistep processes easier by catalyzing sequential reactions in which the product of one enzyme becomes the substrate for the next. In a new finding, researchers report ...

Researchers have made a major breakthrough earlier this year in the field of evolutionary conservation of molecular dynamics in enzymes. Their work points to potential applications in health, ...

Now a multidisciplinary effort involving 15 scientists from three institutions has begun chipping away at this mystery – in a big way. Their work to identify the function of one bacterial protein and ...

October 30, 2008 — A pair of investigators studying HepA-related protein (HARP) ATPase, a protein associated with Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD), have found that the protein functions as an ...
