Researchers analyzed the role of NUDT5 and its interaction with other proteins in the folate pathway and in regulating purine synthesis.

New images of an enzyme in action as it interacts with the chromosome could provide important insight into how cells--including cancer cells--regulate their genes. The enzyme, LSD1, can "turn off" ...

A study reveals that NUDT5 regulates purine production, the process that builds DNA, without using its enzymatic activity.

UPTON, NY -- Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, the New York Structural Biology Center, and SGX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., have determined the atomic crystal ...

DALLAS – Aug. 11, 2005 – Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have defined a key step in the production of beta-amyloid, a short protein that is thought to be responsible for the development ...

THE fact that the monograph has reached its fifth edition shows that it occupies a definite place in modern biochemical literature, and it seems almost superfluous to state that it presents an ...

Deep within the world's oceans lurk marine bacteria armed with plastic-munching enzymes, their evolution seemingly sculpted ...

That problem is why, even though we’ve had success finding enzymes that break down common plastics like polyesters and PET, they’re only partial solutions to plastic waste. However, researchers aren’t ...
