The Michaelis-Menten equation is used to describe the dynamics of an enzymatic reaction, in which an enzyme interacts with a substrate to generate some product before the enzyme is released. Cells are ...
Advances in genome sequencing and structural biology mean that we are now buried under an avalanche of predicted domains and structures of proteins with unknown functions. Two groups have used ...
In a new finding, researchers report an enzyme complex where the two interacting enzymes have opposite functions—one makes the metabolite glutamate and the other degrades it.
Molecular biology has transitioned to a new era where precise genetic manipulation plays a critical role in research, medicine, and biotechnology. Among the vital tools in this field are cloning ...
