AI technology creates new proteins from scratch: Research
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
Scientists have developed an AI system capable of creating artificial enzymes from scratch. In laboratory experiments, some of these enzymes worked as well as those found in nature, even though their artificially created amino acid sequences differed widely from any known natural protein.

Study reveals regulatory mechanisms for enzyme production in filamentous f
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
In addition to being a longtime ally of sake brewers, filamentous fungi may soon become a supporter of environmentalists. Researchers from Osaka Metropolitan University have identified the processes that control the development of enzymes in a filamentous fungus, enabling the efficient break

Researchers discover a dependency of glioblastoma on biotin distribution
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Glioblastoma is the most lethal and malignant adult brain cancer that may arise from the neuroglial stem or progenitor cells. Certain gene mutations or those with a known history of other cancers and radiation therapy may predispose patients to develop brain cancer. Tumour relapse is invaria

Research: Pair of key enzymes help regulate genome
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
After an intrepid, decade-long search, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have found a new role for a pair of enzymes that regulate genome function and, when missing or mutated, are linked to diseases such as brain tumors, blood cancers and Kleefstra syndrome a rare genetic, neurocog

Plants can adapt their lignin using 'chemically encoding' enzymes to face
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
A new study shows how plants "encode" specific chemistries of their lignin to grow tall and sustain climate changes: each plant cell uses different combinations of the enzymes LACCASEs to create specific lignin chemistries. These results can be used both in agriculture and in forestry for se

Research: Enzymes could be key to understanding how DNA mutates
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
Enzymes, which are crucial to controlling how cells replicate in the human body, could be the very ingredient that encourages DNA to spontaneously mutate - causing potentially permanent genetic errors, according to new research from the University of Surrey.
