Mitochondrial Iron Accumulation Drives Perforin Mediated Cancer Cell Death

For decades, scientists have known that a protein made by T cells and natural killer (NK) cells in the immune system, called perforin, can kill tumor cells by punching a hole in the cell wall and injecting proteases called granzymes, which kill the cell.

Enzyme Study Proves Active Site Mutations Alone Cannot Dictate Selectivity

Enzymes are the molecular tools of life. They accelerate chemical reactions and are able to distinguish very precisely between molecules that are similar to one another. The high selectivity of many enzymes is key to the production of important medicines such as penicillin and cyclosporine.
