- Filming proteins in action
- French researchers have produced a film of proteins at work by freezing them in different states. They made a movie of an enzyme called "superoxide reductase" which is found in bacteria. This enzyme is a protein that catalyses chemical reactions and needs to eliminate some toxic molecules in order to...

- Taming a protein with a nanostring
- UCLA physicists have developed a new approach to protein engineering by using molecular strings to control chemical mechanisms. They demonstrated how an enzyme could be physically controlled by a nanodevice -- a molecular spring made of DNA -- attached to it. In fact, they changed the structure of a protein...

- 'Cooking' carbon nanotubes like spaghetti
- Scientists from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory PNNL have developed a technique to force a variety of enzymes to self-assemble layer-by-layer on carbon nanotubes CNTs with the help of noodle-like polymer molecules. In "A biosensor layered like lasagna," the researchers say that this technique can be applied to a wide...

- Enzyme-based computers
- Israeli researchers have built a molecular computer using enzymes as logical gates, according to New Scientist. the scientists used "two enzymes -- glucose dehydrogenase GDH and horseradish peroxidase HRP -- to trigger two interconnected chemical reactions." And the enzyme-based computer was able to perform computations using these chemical logic functions....

- Nanotechnology adds vital enzyme to water
- If you're like me, you've never heard about CoQ10 before today. I've discovered that this coenzyme, also known as ubiquinone, is a substance that's found in every cell of our bodies and as vital to our survival as vitamin C. Even if we're able to create our own CoQ10, our...
