Crystallographic analyses of four distinct structures of AnmK (anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid kinase) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveal its full catalytic cycle and confirm the proposed random-sequential kinetic mechanism.

Red terrestrial planets: an opportunity to search for life beyond Earth

NMR Spectroscopy reveals that the Nsp8 N-terminal domain, a key component of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, is capable of folding and binding RNA without other replicase components..

Time-resolved experiment at an XFEL to allow us to visualize, in real time, how the shape of the catalytic site of β-lactamase determines the inhibition mechanism of this enzyme by an inhibitor.

We have grown highly crystalline magnetite nanostructures on lithographied ruthenium stripes on sapphire substrates. This allows e.g., the manipulation of their magnetic domains by applying current pulses and magnetic fields.

This work proposes a new photocatalytic mechanism for chlorine atom production that occurs when Sahara dust mixes with sea spray aerosol.

We demonstrate the power of the SFX technique to describe the structure-function relationship in NQO1 for which there was no structural evidence describing the high conformational heterogeneity at the catalytic site

Spintronic devices rely on the precise manipulation of local magnetization. We observe by electron microscopy the response of magnetic domains, walls and vortices of thin magnetite microstructures to external magnetic fields.
