A rendering of an enzyme known as isocyanide hydratase, which accelerates chemical reactions that neutralize a toxic molecule in certain bacteria. Researchers from Nebraska, Stanford, Puerto Rico and Germany used record-intense X-rays to capture dynamics of isocyanide hydratase that were previously only hypothesized, a feat that could point the way to doing the same with other enzymes.
