Reactions involving the transfer of a phosphoryl (−PO32–) group are fundamental to cellular metabolism. These reactions are catalyzed by enzymes, often large and complex, belonging to the ...

The main types of enzymes which are responsible for collagen degradation are collagenases, which belong to a group of enzymes called matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs.) Collagenases are released by ...

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of protein hydrolysates obtained by the enzymatic hydrolysis of okara using an endopeptidase (Alcalase) and exopeptidase ...

Inserting enzyme recipes into industrial microbes The experiment yielded eight new genes critical for making the drug. One, called FoTO1, plays an especially important role in streamlining and ...
