The primary functions of the proteasome are driven by a highly allosteric ATPase complex. ATP binding to only two subunits in this hexameric complex triggers substrate binding, ATPase–20S association ...

A so-called "molecular chaperone", the protein Hsp70, carries out more functions in the maturation of proteins than previously thought. As the researchers have discovered, Hsp70 not only acts as a ...

Researchers have succeeded in unveiling the microscopic mechanism of AHE release in water. In ATP hydrolysis, water is used to split apart adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to create adenosine diphosphate ...

ATP is a vital molecule used by living organisms as a universal source of energy required to drive the cogwheels of intracellular biochemical reactions necessary for growth and development. Animal ...
