If you recall, over the summer, BlackBerry held Jam Camps around the world for student developers to attend. There, they learnt how to create apps using all the developers tools provided by BlackBerry ...

Amino acids are the fundamental building blocks of proteins and play central roles as intermediates in myriad metabolic pathways. In medical biochemistry, they are not only recognised for their ...

Biochemists shed light on the evolution of our 20- amino acid toolbox. The genetic code of life depends mainly on 20 amino acids, which can be arranged in various combinations to form proteins. For ...

Bentham Science has published a book that focuses on mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs). These amino acids have the ability to absorb ultraviolet rays, which makes them a popular ingredient in ...

Moisan, T. A., Goes, J., and Neale, Patrick J. 2009. "Mycosporine-Like Amino Acids In Phytoplankton: Biochemistry, Physiology, and Optics." In Marine Phytoplankton ...

This presentation will focus on revising some of the key topics in A-Level biochemistry, e.g. definitions, structure and isomerism in amino-acids, basic protein structure, examples of key proteins ...

Amino acids are compounds that combine to form proteins. Naturally found in our bodies, they’re often referred to as the “building blocks of life,” notes MedlinePlus. Amino acids are needed for the ...

Two new options for making designer proteins made news in 2001—both from labs at Scripps Research Institute. Since 2001, Schimmel and Schultz have taken different directions with unnatural amino acids ...

Essential amino acids are organic compounds that your body needs to function. You can get them from certain foods. Amino acids, often referred to as the building blocks of proteins, are compounds that ...

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. These molecules come together to form proteins. Your body uses them for many important functions, such as making hormones, building muscle, and ...
