Gifu University scientists have uncovered how a brain-specific enzyme reshapes protein-linked sugar chains to facilitate the ...

Researchers use synthetic biology to reverse-engineer modern nitrogenases and rebuild their possible ancestors, in an effort to better understand the origins of life on Earth and beyond.

Enzymes are proteins that catalyse the chemical transformations essential to life. Through billions of years of evolution, nature has sculpted them to be remarkably efficient and specific for their ...
