The Post group has worked to understand the basis of the catalytic power of enzymes using information from crystallography, kinetics, and a description of conformational distributions from molecular ...

A new ML-guided platform can design thousands of new enzymes, predict how they will behave in the real world, and test their performance.

Catalysts take many forms. Some are porous solids, such as the platinum, rhodium and palladium meshes that remove nitrogen oxide from automobile exhaust. Others are protein molecules, called enzymes, ...

EDWARDSVILLE - For his impressive and impactful research, teaching and mentoring in the area of enzyme mimetic chemistry, ...

In order to recover valuable substances from CO2, it must be reduced in many individual steps. If electrocatalysis is used for this, many potentially different potential molecules are formed, which ...

Optically pure alcohols are prevalent motifs in natural products and pharmaceuticals, driving the development of effective ...

Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They are essential for life, as they play a crucial role in various biological processes, such as digestion, ...

To achieve methane conversion without that input of energy, the MIT team designed a hybrid catalyst with two components: a zeolite and a naturally occurring enzyme. Zeolites are abundant, inexpensive ...

This Review summarizes and unifies recent advancements, focusing on key enzymes that catalyze these modifications. Plant-specific class III glutaredoxins regulate the activity of TGA transcription ...
