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

New research from Johns Hopkins Medicine shows that the enzyme biliverdin reductase A (BVRA) plays a direct protective role against oxidative stress in neurons, independent of its role producing the ...

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

Within each cell, there is a constant struggle between life-sustaining molecules and molecules that could hasten its demise.

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 ...

This important study presents a thoughtful design and characterization of chimeric influenza hemagglutinin (HA) head domains combining elements of distinct receptor-binding sites. The results provide ...

Researchers used cryo-EM to study how the HIV enzyme integrase arranges in 3D to slip its DNA into the host genome and pack ...

Commonly known as freezer burn, ice crystals and their jagged edges not only ruin the texture of foods like ice cream. At the microscopic level, ice crystals can reportedly destroy the structure of ...

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

With the correct combination of household staples (and these handy stain removal hacks), you can easily get a dried-and-set ...

ABSTRACT: Disorders of galactose metabolism and the aberrant glycosylation it mediates play a central role in the pathological mechanisms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). In RA, ...
