When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits that RNA before it is translated into protein. Many genes can be processed and ...

Biology textbooks explain that cells follow a universal rule when processing gene transcripts to make proteins. Non-coding ...

RNA is a central biological macromolecule, now widely harnessed in medicine and nanotechnology. Like proteins, RNA function often depends on its precise three-dimensional structure. A recent study ...

Cancers driven by hiccups in RNA processing can’t hide from our immune system, according to new work published today in Cell. A cross-institutional team Fred Hutch Cancer Center and Memorial Sloan ...

The IDR in TAF2 steers the protein away from active gene promoters, where it participates in transcription initiation, to nuclear speckles — liquid-like compartments that concentrate factors for RNA ...

A University of California, Irvine-led research team has discovered intricate molecular mechanisms driving the RNA processing defects that lead to Huntington's disease and link HD with other ...

A research team has discovered intricate molecular mechanisms driving the RNA processing defects that lead to Huntington's disease and link HD with other neurodegenerative disorders such as ...

Scientists at A*STAR's Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS), in collaboration with their counterparts from Canada, Hong Kong and US, have discovered a protein mediator SON plays a critical role in the ...

tRNA is an important component of the biological synthesis of new proteins, as it carries a specific amino acid that will be incorporated to the protein through the ribosome machinery, as directed by ...
