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 ...

When Perry Frey attended a lecture by Robert Abeles about cofactor-mediated enzyme catalysis, he reacted radically, switching from a focus in pure organic chemistry to one in biochemistry and ...

A new catalyst promotes an asymmetric radical reaction using an engineered ligand that can differentiate between very similar ...

Despite knowing that the active centres of many metalloprotein enzymes are iron porphyrin ... nanoporous array shows promise for biomimetic catalysis. What if synthetic iron porphyrins could ...

Cohn started college in 1928 when she was only 15, majoring in chemistry at Hunter College ... of chemical changes in enzymes (enzyme catalysis). Cohn used an isotope of oxygen to gain insight on ...

Dr. Stull is an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry at Western Michigan University. The overarching goal of his research is to understand how enzymes control catalysis. The Stull lab ...

Our department offers doctorate opportunities in a range of traditional research areas, including analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry ... aims to elucidate the mechanisms of enzyme ...

We are long overdue in converting the practice of organic chemistry ... that function as crucial catalysts. Just as bio-catalysis, throughout time or via directed evolution, is done in water, doing ...

As King’s College London (KCL) scientists are once more in the headlines – this time with new ‘plug and play’ drug delivery technology that could offer a possible breakthrough for multi ...

For the discovery of a new class of enzymes ... catalysis. This fundamental understanding means the team can modify the enzymes to alter and therefore control what reaction is catalysed. This ...
