Sentences with phrase «other biomolecules»

«There's a school of thought that the reason enzymes work better in cells than in solution is because the concentration of enzymes surrounded by other biomolecules in cells is about 1,000 to 10,000 time more than in standard biochemistry lab conditions,» said Eric Ackerman, PNNL chief scientist and senior author of a related study that appears today in the journal Nanotechnology.
This paper lays out a path for using free - electron lasers to get structures of proteins and other biomolecules without having to crystallize them at all.
Scientists are interested in the spatial structure of proteins and other biomolecules because this sheds light on the precise way in which they work.
The inherently weak interactions between carbohydrates and proteins or other biomolecules makes these interactions difficult to study.
In 1990, Henderson was able to obtain the first atomic - resolution cryo - EM structure — of bacteriorhodopsin, which has a well - ordered structure that made high resolution easier to achieve than would have been the case with many other biomolecules.

Artemisinin has a chemical structure called a peroxide bridge, which can be cleaved by iron ions to form free radicals that attack a range of proteins and other biomolecules; some researchers suspected that such an attack would be fatal for the parasites.
The tiny cocoons were by far the smallest protein crystals ever imaged with X-ray crystallography, and the results point the way to using even smaller crystals — or even uncrystallized proteins and other biomolecules — for structure analysis.
A new technique for chilling large molecules may give researchers another way to examine the detailed structure and chemistry of proteins and other biomolecules.
