Phoresis and Enhanced Diffusion Compete in Enzyme Chemotaxis [PDF]
Nano Lett. 2018, 18, 4, 2711-2717, 2021 Chemotaxis of enzymes in response to gradients in the concentration of their substrate has been widely reported in recent experiments, but a basic understanding of the process is still lacking. Here, we develop a microscopic theory for chemotaxis, valid for enzymes and other small molecules.

Oncogenic BRCA1,2 Mutations in the Human Lineage—A By-Product of Sexual Selection?
Biomedicines, 2023 In this review, we discuss the long-known problem of tissue-specific carcinogenesis in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers: while the genes are expressed ubiquitously, increased cancer risk is observed mostly in the breast and ovaries, and to a much lesser

Visual detection of isothermal nucleic acid amplification using pH-sensitive dyes
BioTechniques, 2015 Nucleic acid amplification is the basis for many molecular diagnostic assays. In these cases, the amplification product must be detected and analyzed, typically requiring extended workflow time, sophisticated equipment, or both.

Biotransformation of explosives by the old yellow enzyme family of flavoproteins [PDF]
, 2004 Several independent studies of bacterial degradation of nitrate ester explosives have demonstrated the involvement of flavin-dependent oxidoreductases related to the old yellow enzyme (OYE) of yeast. Some of these enzymes also transform the nitroaromatic
