Enzymes help with specific functions that are vital to the operation and overall health of the body. They help speed up chemical reactions in the human body. They are essential for respiration, ...

Redox regulation in chloroplasts is a fundamental process that ensures the optimal performance of photosynthesis through the reversible modification of key enzymes. Central to this mechanism is the ...

A study led by University of Cincinnati Cancer Center researchers sheds new light on the mechanisms by which a major oncogene promotes and sustains lymphoma development and progression, paving the way ...

A network of enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants protects chloroplasts from photooxidative damage. With all enzymatic components being nuclear encoded, the control of the antioxidant capacity ...

A new paper reports a truly radical development: Researchers designed a metalloprotein that can stabilize a reactive organic radical that is not normally stable in water. The work is a first step ...

Using computational tools and virtual screening, researchers at the Center for Redox Processes in Biomedicine (Redoxoma) have identified new inhibitors of the enzyme human 15-lipoxygenase-2 (h15-LOX-2 ...

A new model of the active site of a key enzyme in cellular respiration allows scientists to study the enzyme under conditions where the flow of electrons is the limiting step, as it is in the natural ...

Throughout evolution, pathogenic microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi, have developed sophisticated defense strategies to survive and multiply in the hostile environment of their hosts ...
