In the dipstick method, neutrophilic esterases catalyze the hydrolysis of esters to produce their respective alcohols and acids. The alcohols produced then react with a diazonium salt to produce a ...

Recent work in The EMBO Journal describes a new hybrid post-translational modification of proteins, composed of a poly-ubiquitin chain that is attached to a target protein via a mono-ADP-ribose (MAR) ...

Gerty Theresa Cori (1896-1957) was a trailblazing biochemist whose work fundamentally reformed our understanding of how cellular energy is stored and ...

As noted above, stellate cell activation is the central event in hepatic fibrosis. Activation consists of 2 major phases: (1) initiation (also called apreinflammatory stage) and (2) perpetuation ...

Types of hydrolase include esterases, such as phosphatases, that act on ester bonds, and proteases or peptidases that act on amide bonds in peptides. Biochemical analysis of human macrodomain ...
