(PhysOrg.com) -- Researchers in the University of Bristol's School of Chemistry have found a way to accelerate the breakdown of amide bonds. The work, published in Angewandte Chemie, features as the ...

A single type of chemical structure that shows up again and again in modern medicine is the amide bond that links a carbonyl group (C=O) to a nitrogen atom. They're so ubiquitous that 117 of the top ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amide Technologies, a biotech that synthesizes challenging peptides, announced today that it has begun commercializing its novel peptide manufacturing platform. The ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amide Technologies, a leading biotech company specializing in the synthesis of complex peptides, announced today the appointment of Dr. Brad Pentelute as its new CEO ...

Linking molecular components through amide bonds is one of the most important reactions in research and the chemical industry. Scientists have now introduced a new type of reaction for making amide ...

Nature typically outdoes chemists when it comes to efficiently carrying out reactions. But for a nickel—or make that a simple nickel catalyst—a team of UCLA chemists has matched wits with enzymes on ...

In proteins, amino acids are held together by amide bonds. These bonds are long-lived and are robust against changes in temperature, acidity, or alkalinity. Certain medicines make use of reactions ...

With its simple bicyclic skeleton, 2-quinuclidone doesn't look like it would be much of a challenge to make. But thanks to an unusually labile amide linkage, this modest lactam has eluded synthetic ...

Mevopur anti-stat is tested to new stringent regulations and maintains anti-static performance at low humidity levels. Clariant, a supplier of specialty chemicals, has launched a new amide/amine-free ...

Spun out of MIT, Amide partners with biopharmas to accelerate peptide drug development - shortening synthesis to days instead of months - with peptides 3x longer than existing methods CAMBRIDGE, Mass.
