Previously, only one route for producing these microfibrils was known: a class of enzymes called CESA. But research by University of Rhode Island Professor of Biological Sciences Alison Roberts ...

Despite their similar topology, these two enzymes have different catalytic sites and mechanisms. To date, three-dimensional structures have been reported for three classes of epimerases.

This Review summarizes and unifies recent advancements, focusing on key enzymes that catalyze these modifications. Plant-specific class III glutaredoxins regulate the activity of TGA transcription ...

Compounds that enhance enzyme activity show promise for cellular rejuvenation and treating age-related diseases. However, ...
