Kinesin is a molecular motor that works as a cellular ‘porter’. Its job is to walk along microtubules, carrying membrane-bound bags of chemicals. To do this it must convert the chemical energy of ATP ...

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) represents a eukaryotic quality control pathway that recognizes and rapidly degrades transcripts harbouring nonsense mutations to limit accumulation of ...

In ATP hydrolysis, water is used to split apart adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to create adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to get energy. ATP hydrolysis energy (AHE) is then used in the activities of living ...

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 ...
