How does your body speed up these important reactions? The answer is enzymes. Enzymes in our bodies are catalysts that speed up reactions by helping to lower the activation energy needed to start a ...
This manuscript provides fundamental studies to help us better understand the effects of mutations in the presenilin-1 (PSEN1) gene on proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP).
Enzymes catalyze nearly all of the chemical reactions that occur in biological systems. Enzymes are generally proteins but also include catalytic DNA and catalytic RNA. As effective biological ...
Have no fear—affinity diagrams are here to save you from getting overwhelmed by the sheer volume of data you’ve gathered. They’ll help you navigate through and organize your data in an incredibly ...
The Zoghbi lab had earlier identified TYK2—an enzyme that adds phosphate to Tyrosine groups—as a potential regulator of tau levels and that knocking down the TYK2 gene reduced tau levels in ...
Enzymes are present in microorganisms, plants and animals and act as catalysts in various chemical reactions. This means that they increase the rate of the reactions. Because of this they can be ...
A key insight in the transformation of enzymology into a rigorous science was the realization that basic chemical principles could be applied to enzyme action. As we understand its history, the ...
