Researchers demonstrate the implementation of a remote laboratory activity to teach students about enzyme kinetics. The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning.

Enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions in living organisms. They are widely applied in industries such as food ...

A couple of years ago, scientists discovered an enzyme in a waste recycling center in Japan that digests plastic. During a recent experiment to understand how this enzyme works, scientists ...

Just because an enzyme has an active site doesn’t mean the rest of the enzyme should be disregarded, as though it were so much dead weight. It influences enzyme function, if only by keeping the enzyme ...

The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers across the globe to embrace remote learning. Although adapting existing materials was relatively easy for lecture-based courses that revolved around theory, ...

Researchers at Stanford University have developed a new tool they say dramatically speeds up the study of enzymes. The new tool allows thousands of very small experiments to run simultaneously on a ...
