Thousands of previously undescribed protein–metabolite interactions have been mapped by analysing outbred mice.

If you have ever cooked on a gas stove or seen a flame flicker to life with the turn of a knob, you have seen natural gas in ...

Bacterial styrene oxidase isomerase has been known to science for more than three decades, but its mechanism of action has ...

On Jan. 10, Chinese scientists uploaded the genetic sequence of a novel coronavirus, later named SARS-CoV-2, to an open-access website, GenBank. The virus had been linked to a growing number of ...

Amid growing debates about the benefits and risks of studying looking-glass versions of life’s building blocks, there is an urgent need to bridge divergent views. Prohibiting the creation of molecules ...

For decades, amino acids have been added to medical formulations like insulin as stabilizers: these small molecules keep proteins (i.e. larger particles) from interacting in undesirable ways. And for ...

Amino acids have long been known to improve the stability and solubility of proteins. Amino acids might be added to insulin, for example, to maintain shelf-life and stop undesired chemical reactions ...

Cellular membrane proteins play many important roles throughout the body, including transporting substances in and out of the cell, transmitting signals, speeding up reactions and helping neighboring ...

The novel computer method to encode synthetic protein sequences within cell lipid environments offers insights into how ...

This work presents valuable new data on the role of D-Serine and how it competes with its stereoisomer L-Serine to influence metabolism. The work presents a variety of solid experimental data combined ...
