New Methods for modelling cofactor-dependent enzyme structure and function

The University of Manchester Department of Chemistry

Enzymes are Nature’s catalysts and many used cofactors and/or coenzymes to catalyse their reactions. While AI and homology methods now often allow the useful prediction of protein structure from amino acid sequence, this can be more challenging when the protein/enzyme contain cofactors. Read more

Reaction Monitoring and Structural Characterisation of Coordination Driven Self-Assembled Systems by Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry

UNSW Sydney School of Chemistry

Can you envisage a world where building a new catalyst or an artificial enzyme is like following an architectural plan for building a house? This is difficult as we don't even fully understand the construction materials! We research the properties of molecular building-blocks and their "constructed" aggregates, towards drawing up these type of blueprints. Read more
