Cutinases are fungal enzymes that naturally degrade plant cuticles and show promise for recycling plastics. However, they ...

Among the various plastic recycling methods being explored, one promising approach is biological plastic recycling, also ...

A multi-enzyme platform is developed for sequence-unconstrained traceless protein synthesis and modification with either synthetic peptides or recombinant proteins, according to a new study out of ...

In neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, proteins accumulate in the body's cells, fold incorrectly and clump together to form larger aggregates. Normally, cells are able to ...

“Enzymes are considered clean label because they’re simply proteins derived from living organisms — usually bacteria, fungi ...

Enzymes are proteins that guide (catalyze) very specific chemical reactions. They play indispensable roles in all life forms. Some enzymes carry out the day-to-day business of biology like digesting ...
