To survive in fluctuating environmental conditions, microorganisms must be able to quickly react to environmental challenges by upregulating the expression of genes encoding metabolic pathways. Here ...

In biology, enzymes have evolved over millions of years to drive chemical reactions. Scientists have now derived universal rules to enable the de novo design of optimal enzymes. As an example, they ...

Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS)May 25 2025 In biology, enzymes have evolved over millions of years to drive chemical reactions. Scientists from the Max Planck ...

Biological cells invest much of their resources into the production of enzymes, which catalyze the conversion of substrates into products. An international team of bioinformaticians and biophysicists ...

For the first time, researchers have successfully used computational simulations to modify an enzyme’s structure to increase the optimum temperature of a reaction. Researchers at Uppsala University ...

Intermediate levels of the enzyme asparaginase, and low temperatures, may be the ideal conditions for low acrylamide formation in biscuits, suggests a new study. According to findings published in ...
