Stockholm University and SciLifeLab researchers have uncovered how glucose transporters move nutrients into cells, bridging a long-standing gap between structure and function in membrane biology. "Our ...

Electric fields can modulate chemical reactivity by stabilising charged or polar transition states and intermediates, thereby altering reaction kinetics and selectivity. Both endogenous fields in ...

A computational workflow designs proteins with catalytic efficiencies comparable to those of some natural enzymes — a landmark result for the field. Read the paper: Complete computational design of ...

Using a series of more than 1,000 X-ray snapshots of the shapeshifting of enzymes in action, researchers at Stanford University have illuminated one of the great mysteries of life—how enzymes are able ...
