The post-monsoon season is often a welcome change. Still, it also brings unique challenges for skin health that should not be ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. Directed evolution offers a complementary strategy by ...

Microbial pectinolytic enzymes are known to play a commercially important role in a number of industrial processes. Two kinds of yeast can be discerned regarding the production of enzymes. One group ...

Abstract: Microbial removal of heavy metals is indicated to be effective and eco-friendly. However, since microorganisms possess varying ranges for their biochemical activities and removal ...

Life has evolved over billions of years, adapting to the changing environment. Similarly, enzymes—proteins that speed up biochemical reactions (catalysis) in cells—have adapted to the habitats of ...

Enzymes originally evolved in high-temperature environments and later adapted to lower temperatures as Earth cooled. Scientists discovered that a key shift in enzyme function occurred over ...

This article describes a simple method to determine the optimum pH for the activity of one enzyme in a coupled enzyme assay. Decoupling of the two-step reaction is achieved by heat denaturing the ...

Biology Department, Çukurova University, Adana, Türkiye. Enzymes are complex organic molecules found in living cells that act as catalysts for various and several endogenous biochemical reactions in a ...

Abstract: The success parameters of mud crab cultivation can be seen from the temperature, pH, and ammonia levels contained in the water. Basically the monitoring process for the 3 parameters ...

For the first time, researchers have successfully used computational simulations to modify an enzyme’s structure to increase the optimum temperature of a reaction. Researchers at Uppsala University ...

Some enzymes can catalyze more than one chemical conversion for which they are physiologically specialized. This secondary function, which is called underground, promiscuous, metabolism, or cross ...
