A normal ketosynthase is an enzyme that helps a molecule form a linear chain. SalC, by contrast, manufactures salinosporamide by forming two complex, reactive, ring structures.

Tuned enzymes: Extra guest molecule in an enzyme's binding pocket enables methane oxidation. by WileyWiley ...

Scientists have been hunting for a biological Rosetta Stone -- an enzyme allowing DNA's four-letter language to be written into a simpler (and potentially more ancient) molecule that may have ...

Single-molecule assay with fluorescent product. Escherichia coli β-galactosidase is a 465-kDa enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of lactose. The enzyme's crystal structural and biochemical ...

Rutgers scientists have developed an analytical toolkit to measure the binding forces of single proteins when they are pulled away from their substrate – such as an enzyme – that will help the ...
