Cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs) are a large family of secreted bacterial pore-forming toxins that specifically bind cholesterol-containing mammalian membranes 1. Although the pore size ...
Plastic, once ingenious for its durability and versatility, has become a global environmental issue that is affecting every ...
Disulfide bonds play a pivotal role in the folding and stability of many bacterial proteins, influencing not only their tertiary structure but also their biological activity. In bacteria, the ...
Imagine a world where rooms are lit by their walls, clothes are smartphones and windows turn into video screens. That may seem like a bit of science fiction, but not for long. Researchers at MIT are ...
A team of scientists from the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, has recently demonstrated that chemical agents capable of reducing disulfide (S-S) bonds can be potentially used as antiviral drugs ...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19), uses its spike (S) glycoprotein to enter host cells. The S glycoprotein consists of ...
When biochemists want to break disulfide bonds within or between molecules, they add dithiothreitol to their buffer solutions. Now researchers describe an easy-to-make alternative to the small ...
Scientists have found a clever way to supercharge ultra-thin semiconductors by reshaping the space beneath them rather than ...
As global demand for green hydrogen surges, a new mini-review published in ENGINEERING Energy (formerly Frontiers in Energy) provides a definitive roadmap for using molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) as a ...
Nanoparticle research has gained momentum in the recent years by virtue of the unexpected outcomes that are possible by altering the atomic and molecular properties of basic elements. This article ...
The natural product diallyl disulfide is the major constituent of oil of garlic (Allium sativum) and other members of the Allium genus, including onion (A. cepa). It is responsible for garlic’s ...
