Posted in: Scientific Highlights,
In a paper published in Structure, a team led by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory reported the pioneering use of neutron and X-ray crystallography and high performance computing to study how the enzyme D-xylose isomerase, or XI, can cause a biochemical reaction in natural sugar to produce rare sugars. Unlike drugs made
