Researchers demonstrate the implementation of a remote laboratory activity to teach students about enzyme kinetics. The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning. Although adapting existing materials was relatively easy for lecture-based courses that revolved around theory, ...

Food and pharmaceutical manufacturers increasingly seek lipids with carefully controlled fatty-acid compositions. However, ...

Researchers have discovered how acids on the surface of bacteria give these microscopic organisms their characteristic "rod" shape—by keeping an enzyme at bay that would otherwise turn the cylindrical ...

Measuring Enzyme Kinetic Parameters with the ITC Universal Enzyme Assay Method Enzymes are important in drug discovery and development since they constitute approximately one-half of all known drug ...

The SMART method accelerates enzyme evolution by reducing the selection period for superior variants from several weeks to a few days, and decreases overall enzyme engineering campaign costs by ...

PET is one of the most widely used plastics. In principle, PET molecules can be broken down into their basic building blocks using suitable enzymes. In practice, however, these approaches are ...

An artist’s depiction of an artificially evolved enzyme breaking a silicon-carbon bond. [Caltech/Dow] For the first time, scientists have engineered an enzyme that can break the stubborn man-made ...
