A metabolic enzyme studied for over seven decades has a hidden second function—it can unwind RNA and promote cell cycle progression, an additional function beyond its role in energy production, ...

Peroxiredoxins are among the most abundant enzymes involved in managing oxidative stress. They control the levels of peroxides such as hydrogen peroxide, relay redox signals, and help protect other ...

Researchers have found that peroxiredoxins, a family of antioxidant enzymes central to how cells manage oxidative stress, can assemble into a far wider variety of molecular shapes than scientists ...

New research shows that sourdough fermentation does more than make bread rise—it transforms wheat fibers in unexpected ways. Scientists found that enzymes already present in wheat, activated by the ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have uncovered how a single protein triggers two opposite responses in blood vessels - one inflammatory and one protective. This protein, a ...
