A new study published in Engineering explores the biomimetic synthesis of natural products. This research, led by scientists ...

The process of discovering molecules that have the properties needed to create new medicines and materials is cumbersome and ...

A key objective of ongoing research rooted in molecular physics is to understand and precisely control chemical reactions at ...

Within the ribosome, the rRNA molecules direct the catalytic steps of protein synthesis — the stitching together of amino acids to make a protein molecule. In fact, rRNA is sometimes called a ...

and by synthesizing the proposed structures for these molecules in the lab, were important tools for understanding the biological synthesis and breakdown of the prostaglandins. Synthetic chemists ...

Chemists from HSE University and the Nesmeyanov Institute of Organoelement Compounds of the Russian Academy of Sciences (INEOS RAS) have developed a new method for synthesising amides, essential ...

and we propose that this is a new mechanism for the prebiotic synthesis of molecules that constitute the building blocks of life,” Zare explained. “On early Earth, there were water sprays all ...
