This study reveals how SV40 helicase unwinds DNA, highlighting ATP hydrolysis's role in translocation and offering insights ...

Credit: Kateryna Kon/Science Photo Library/ What is DNA, and how does it work? You don't need a degree in genetics to understand. Here, we'll give an overview of DNA and answer questions ...

A straightforward and reproducible synthesis pathway for a diverse range of ATP- and ADP-coupled biomolecules has been developed by modifying an established reagent. Researchers at the Institute for ...

Trying to keep up with every slang term and acronym used online can seem like an impossible task. But we've got you covered. Here's what "atp" means.

When ATP or ADP were added, this further increased gripping and friction, indicating two mechanisms of motor-DNA interaction -- nucleotide-dependent and nucleotide-independent.

Since the problem of transporter-mediated multidrug resistance of tumor cells is becoming increasingly important in cancer therapy, it is necessary to modulate the activity of efflux transporters of ...

However, the connection of cellular ATP abundance and protein stability is still under investigation. Using Fast Relaxation Imaging paired with alanine scanning and ATP depletion experiments, we study ...

Adenine nucleotide translocase‐1 (ANT1) is an ADP/ATP transporter protein located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. ANT1 is involved not only in the processes of ADP/ATP exchange but also in the ...

The surface is coloured by electrostatic potential (red, −5 kT e −1; blue,+5 kT e −1). Labels in cyan highlight residues different in KCC3, yellow labels indicate residues with potential roles in Mg ...

In the late 1980s, researchers found that this Z nucleotide actually gave the virus some advantages: it was more stable at higher temperatures, it helped one strand of DNA bind more accurately to ...

ATP is present in all living cells and is often referred to as the energy currency of the cell, because it can be easily stored and transported to where it is needed. However, it is unknown why cells ...
