A new study in BMC Chemistry details the synthesis and characterization of two copper(II) Schiff base complexes, showing that one variant exhibits superior inhibitory activity against jack bean urease ...

A greenhouse pot study demonstrates that moderate nickel supplementation enhances soil urease activity and maize nitrogen ...

Urea transporter (UT) inhibitors are a promising class of diuretics, as selective inhibitors targeting UT-A subtypes have demonstrated considerable therapeutic potential. Herein, we employ a two-round ...

Altering the gut microbiome to remove bacteria that possess the bacterial enzyme urease, and increase the population of 'good' bacteria that do not contain the enzyme, may be an effective approach to ...

Researchers from the Institute of Applied Ecology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a new plant-based inhibitor that can improve the efficiency and stability of fertilizers. The ...

Researchers have singled out a bacterial enzyme behind an imbalance in the gut microbiome linked to Crohn's disease. The new study suggests that wiping out a significant portion of the bacteria in the ...

Background and Aim: The current diagnostic methods for detecting Helicobacter pylori infection include rapid urease test (RUT), urea breath test (UBT), histology, culture, and serum antibody detection ...

Using a series of more than 1,000 X-ray snapshots of the shapeshifting of enzymes in action, researchers at Stanford University have illuminated one of the great mysteries of life—how enzymes are able ...
