Ribosomes are the components of cells that read RNA and build proteins. Without the ribosome, the chemistry of life would ...

Ribosomes are the components of cells that read RNA and build proteins. Without the ribosome, the chemistry of life would still be catalyzed by raw ...

Ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories, consume large amounts of energy as they build the proteins that keep cells alive and functioning. When cells experience stress—such as lack of nutrients ...

Duckweed is the fastest-growing flowering plant, but new knowledge of duckweed genetics discovered by Adelaide University ...

Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.

Under stress, animal cells pair inactive ribosomes into RNA-linked disomes. A ribosomal RNA “kissing loop” joins them, protecting ribosomes and reducing protein synthesis to conserve energy.<br /> ...

Inspiring story for students who couldn't clear JEE Mains. Learn how Dr. Venkatraman Ramakrishnan turned failure into a Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

A protein’s life is anything but simple. Discover how transcription, translation, folding, modification, and degradation work together to preserve proteome integrity.

Just days before Rare Disease Day, Telethon Foundation announced the eight winning projects of its Fall Seed Grant call (11th edition), run with the support of four patient associations: DDX3X Italia, ...

This study reports an important and novel finding that TENT5A, an enzyme involved in fine-tuning poly(A) tail length on selected mRNAs, is required for proper enamel mineralization in mice. The ...

RNA therapeutics target translation rather than DNA, aiming to correct shared protein production errors. By enabling cells to read through premature stop codons, engineered tRNAs could restore ...
