Amide bonds are common in drugs because they are chemically stable, form readily and are biocompatible. They also help ...

BM samples were prospectively collected from patients with acute myeloid and lymphoblastic leukemia (AML and ALL) at presentation or at frank relapse. In all cases, they were independently reviewed ...

The authors’ approach is deceptively simple: take an aldehyde dehydrogenase enzyme, which naturally converts aldehydes to acids, and get it to react with an amine instead of water. But actually making ...

A team of researchers at Nagoya University in Japan has discovered that aldehydes are metabolic byproducts associated with premature aging. Published in Nature Cell Biology, their findings reveal ...

Researchers have discovered the connection between aldehydes, organic compounds produced by cells as part of metabolic processes, and rapid aging. Their findings indicate a potential treatment for ...

A single type of chemical structure that shows up again and again in modern medicine is the amide bond that links a carbonyl ...

Prof. HUANG Qing’s group from the Institute of Intelligent Machines, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) developed a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) gas sensor to detect aldehyde ...

Chirality is a geometric property of some molecules and ions, and a chiral molecule/ion is non-superposable on its mirror image, just like our right and left hands. A number of chiral molecules can be ...

Histones are crosslinked with DNA (histone-DPC) following formaldehyde exposure, leading to the malfunction of cellular processes such as transcription. A team of researchers at Nagoya University in ...
