An analysis of an unusual enzyme could result in a new generation of antimicrobial medicines to counter antibiotic resistance. Key details in the enzyme-driven biosynthesis of a natural molecule with ...

Abstract: Traditional biological experimental methods to determine enzyme properties are time-consuming and costly, leading to an increasing interest in computational models for enzyme function ...

Obesity is one of the greatest burdens of global public health. One major factor that drives obesity is excessive fat accumulation. Despite decades of research, the biological processes that trigger ...

From electronic health records and blood tests to the stream of data from wearable devices, the amount of health information people generate is accelerating rapidly. Yet, many users struggle to ...

If we can fully map the structure of our brains, will we be able to understand how they work? That is the goal of researchers attempting to build a wiring diagram, or connectome, of our neural ...

Your brain ventricles are four fluid-filled chambers that produce cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish your brain and protect it from injury. It would be easy to argue that your brain is the ...
