Propylene production is an important bottleneck in the chemical industry because it cannot keep up with the demand. The older production methods, which rely on steam cracking and fluid catalytic cracking, are…
Microbe invasion or damage associated endogenous molecules lead to fast immune response that can also result in cell death called pyroptosis. Several host proteases are able to cleave protein gasdermin D. The central…
Researchers at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Engineering, Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Technology, Polytechnic of Turin and the National Institute of Chemistry published an article entitled “New sustainable…
The hypothetical presence of polar nanoscale objects in the paraelectric phase of perovskite ferroelectrics has been discussed for decades and up to now has never been experimentally proven.
In an effort to develop an efficient and stable photocatalyst for CO2 reduction, hybrid materials based on organic complex compounds and graphene derivatives have proven to be very promising.
Methane and CO2 conversion to syngas (H2 and CO) is a promising catalytic pathway for large scale CO2 utilization with parallel CH4 valorization. However, over highly active nickel catalysts, fast carbon accumulation can…
Dimeric coiled helices are structural motifs that often occur in natural proteins. They consist of α-helices that wind around each other and represent a versatile building block for the construction of designed proteins.…
In eukaryotes, the formation of protein-coding messenger (m) RNA requires extensive remodeling of the nascent precursor (pre)-mRNA transcripts. The 3’-end processing machinery (3EPM) orchestrates one of the vital…
Researchers from the Department of Catalysis and Chemical Reaction Engineering (D13) published an article entitled 'Catalyst Structure-based Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) Hydrogenation Mechanisms, Activity and…
