Researchers have now uncovered the 3D structure of the RNA enzyme SAMURI. Their study provides insights into the development of ribozymes and the evolution of catalytically active RNA.

Proteolytic enzymes are integral to various cellular functions, including extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, digestion, and immune modulation. These ...

Researchers led by chemist Claudia Höbartner have now uncovered the 3D structure of the RNA enzyme SAMURI. Their study provides insights into the development of ribozymes and the evolution of ...

In cells, they ensure the transfer of genetic information and regulate the activity of genes. Some even act as catalysts, ...

Epigenetic modifiers, enzymes that catalyze covalent modifications on chromatin, play a pivotal role in establishing stable ...

Protein modifications are key to cell survival because they ensure they do what they are supposed to do in a healthy system.

Precise nanoscale engineering of bimetallic catalysts allows scientists to boost hydrogenation performance by fine-tuning ...

The contribution of solvent residue areas to the whole pyrograms was always lower than 1% of the total area and was therefore neglected. The products obtained from the catalytic pyrolysis are shown in ...

Conversion of glycerol to acetol or acrolein. Two types of catalytic systems were described to be efficient for the selective glycerol conversion to acetol in gas phase: monofunctional acid or basic ...

The study's findings underscore the importance of Setd2's catalytic function in supporting embryonic development, as the CD Setd2 mouse model exhibits similar embryonic lethality and vascular ...

For instance, initiatives like the Open Catalyst Project, CatBERTa, and others have modeled the adsorption energies of key reaction intermediates on specific intermetallic crystal facets to identify ...
