A poorly characterized protein, historically thought to be a chaperon or enzyme, may actually be a key player in prostate ...

Autonomous cells producing acetyl-lysine offer a novel platform for real-time monitoring of enzyme activity, enhancing ...

Cambridge scientists have built a solar-powered leaf that turns carbon dioxide into sustainable fuel and everyday chemicals.

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

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. For the first time, scientists have created a molecule that can identify ...

Cambridge researchers have engineered a solar-powered “artificial leaf” that mimics photosynthesis to make valuable chemicals sustainably. Their biohybrid device combines organic semiconductors and ...

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 ...

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 ...

The OpenFold Consortium, a leading nonprofit artificial intelligence (AI) research consortium, today announced a preview release of OpenFold3, an open-source deep learning model that predicts ...
