Current demand for plastics and chemical raw materials is met through large-scale production of ethylene from fossil fuels.

As the use of AI spreads through every industry and becomes more of a part of our lives every day, researchers are also ...

Researchers have made a significant advance toward the goal of using bacteria—rather than fossil fuels—to produce ethylene, a ...

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 ...

There are significant differences in the conformation of the monomer in the quaternary complex observed here compared to that in the binary NAD + complex 5 (Fig. 1b). A superposition of 539 equivalent ...

Cambridge scientists have built a solar-powered leaf that turns carbon dioxide into sustainable fuel and everyday chemicals.

Researchers have made a significant advance toward the goal of using bacteria - rather than fossil fuels - to produce ...

Desulfovibrio gigas is a strict anaerobe that contains a well-characterized metabolic pathway that enables it to survive transient contacts with oxygen. The terminal enzyme in this pathway, rubredoxin ...

Researchers used computer models to simulate if and how these features influence prey affect vibrations of orb-weavers' webs ...

Proteins play a key role not only in the body, but also in medicine: they either serve as active ingredients, such as enzymes ...
