In a breakthrough that defies nature, Northwestern University and Stanford University synthetic biologists have created a new ...

Before this century is over, we’re almost certainly going to need to pull massive amounts of carbon dioxide back out of the atmosphere. While we already know how to do carbon capture and storage, it ...

For a carbon-neutral bioeconomy, processes are needed that can efficiently capture CO2 and convert it into valuable products.

Cysteine biosynthesis is a vital biochemical process that converts inorganic sulphur into organic forms, ultimately producing the sulphur‐containing amino acid cysteine. This amino acid is essential ...

Peter Lemansky, Andrej Hasilik, Kurt von Figura, Sherif Helmy, Jordan Fishman, Richard E. Fine, Nancy L. Kedersha and Leonard H. Rome The molecular forms of two lysosomal enzymes, cathepsin C and ...

Scientists have traced a devastating pattern of brain cell loss in a handful of families to a single, ultra-rare mutation that sabotages one of the brain’s key protective enzymes. The discovery not ...

Researchers show that the longevity protein SIRT6 controls how tryptophan is metabolized in the brain. Its loss shifts metabolism toward neurotoxic kynurenine pathways while reducing protective ...

Publicly traded Invizyne Technologies is renaming itself eXoZymes, a rebranding intended to raise the company’s profile by highlighting the sustainable, cell-free enzyme technology its co-founders and ...

As a proof of concept, the engineers then used the same system to convert acetyl-CoA into malate, a commercially valuable ...

Natural biological systems cannot efficiently convert waste CO₂ or its derivatives into useful building-block chemicals at a scale that can keep pace with rising atmospheric carbon. Engineer a fully ...
