DNA is fundamental to the biology of all life on Earth, but how many of us actually know what it is or what it's made of?

Scientists at Goethe University uncover how the oldest enzyme in cellular respiration functions – opening the door to ...

A team of scientists have elucidated an ancient mechanism of cellular respiration. To that end, they studied bacteria that feed on the gases carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and turn them into acetic acid ...

Animals, plants and many other living organisms inhale oxygen to "burn" (oxidize) compounds like sugar into CO2 and water—a ...

Glycolic acid is a substance that chemically exfoliates a person’s skin by dissolving dead skin cells and oils. Glycolic acid may also help boost collagen production, and support skin moisture.

Acetic acid is a valuable industrial material ... engineered these advances by strategically dispersing platinum and iridium atoms on molybdenum carbide (MoC) surfaces. This prevents the formation of ...

Superconducting circuits are being used to create new types of quantum systems that are much easier to control and much more tunable than natural quantum systems like atoms. (Microscopic picture of ...

A new catalyst allows selective production of hydrogen and acetic acid from ethanol, with no direct carbon dioxide emissions. The researchers behind the work believe that the reaction could now ...

In addition to 2′3′cGAMP, small molecule 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) or cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) of prokaryotic origin, such as c-di-AMP, c-di-GMP, and 3′3′cGAMP (canonical), are ...
