Utah State University biochemists Thomson Hallmark and Ryan Jackson, along with collaborators, published two seminal papers this week. Their findings describe the structure and function of a newly ...

Biochemists have created the largest protein ever that self-assembles into a molecular cage. Their designed protein, which does not exist in nature, is hundreds of times smaller than a human cell. The ...

University of Massachusetts Amherst researchers, experts in revealing molecular structure by X-ray crystallography, have identified two new small "chaperone" molecules that may be useful in treating ...

Biochemists have uncovered the structure of cellular mechanism tied to thought, movement and other bodily functions. New atomic scale images of the structure of calcium's gatekeeper, IP3R, could go a ...

Biochemists at the University of California San Diego have uncovered patterns in the outer protein coat of group A Streptococcus that could finally lead to a vaccine against this highly infectious ...

Biochemistry is the study of the chemicals and chemistry of living organisms. Biochemists study biomolecules (such as proteins, RNA, DNA, sugars, and lipids), their applications and interactions in ...

Some scientists look at the big picture to understand the world, but biochemists examine living things at the molecular level, studying processes inside cells. Most biochemists get advanced degrees ...

Biochemists from RUDN University described how to prevent cancer cells from becoming resistant to chemotherapy drugs. Having determined the resistance mechanism, biochemists selected a drug that can ...

Biochemists have warned farmers against using corrosive chemicals as fertilisers to hasten crop germination, saying the practice threatens food safety and could contaminate produce. They explained ...
