Researchers from the Department of Inorganic Chemistry and Technology at the National Institute of Chemistry, in collaboration with the University of Nova Gorica and the HUN-REN Centre for Energy Research (Hungary),…
The spatial organisation of biomolecules enables cells to efficiently regulate numerous biological processes. In addition to canonical membrane bound organelles, biomolecular condensates represent an important…
Researchers of the Department of Synthetic Biology and Immunology have developed a new synthetic biology platform that repurposes human nuclear receptors to create ligand-controlled protein switches and liquid…
Researchers from the Department of Catalysis and Reaction Engineering (D13), together with colleagues from the Jožef Stefan Institute, have demonstrated that the structure of the carbon support plays a key role in the…
The RWGS reaction (CO₂ + H₂ ↔ CO + H₂O) enables the conversion of CO₂ into carbon monoxide, a key feedstock for syngas and the subsequent production of fuels and chemicals. The main challenge is the high energy demand,…
Researchers (dr. Andrii Kostyniuk and dr. Blaž Likozar) from the Department of Catalysis and Chemical Reaction Engineering (D13), together with partners from Lodz University of Technology (Poland), have published a new…
CO2 reduction (CO2 + H2 ↔ CO +H2O) is central to CCU technologies because it converts CO2 into CO, an important building block of syngas for producing fuels and chemicals. The main challenge is the high energy demand…
Cross-linked polypeptides are a versatile class of materials with significant potential for a wide range of biomedical applications. A convenient method for preparing synthetic polypeptide materials is the ring-opening…
Inside every cell, RNAs and proteins constantly interact. They form tiny, liquid-like droplets called biomolecular condensates, which are essential for organising cellular life. Yet, we do not fully understand why some…
Plants are constantly exposed to attacks by various microbes attempting to penetrate their cells. Many pathogens secrete toxic proteins that help with the invasion. One such group of toxins are NLP proteins, cytolysins…
