At one time or another, most of us have played with a flipbook, using our thumbs to rapidly flip a series of pictures to ...

RNA-targeting compounds or small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) offer a potent means for controlling viral infections. An essential prerequisite to their design depends on identifying conserved and ...

Uncover the secrets of cancer with cellular CSI. Learn how ribosomes can leave unique 'fingerprints' that could revolutionize tumor detection.

Ribosomes are made of proteins and a special type of RNA molecule called ribosomal RNA (rRNA). rRNA molecules are the target of chemical modifications, affecting the ribosome’s function.

We knocked down the differentially expressed genes in trained and fed flies and identified two RNA processing genes that affect sleep. Knockdown of one of these, Polr1F, a regulator of ribosomal RNA ...

Rather, mRNAs are bound to proteins that facilitate their processing from pre-mRNA, transport to the cytoplasm, and translation into proteins. Other types of RNA, such as ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and ...

Ribosomes are complexes that consists of proteins and ribosomal RNA. Chemical tags can modify these ribosomal RNAs to affect ribosomal ... “We think the bacteria's ribosomes might be altering its ...

The first step in ribosome biogenesis is the transcription of ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA) that encode the ribosomal RNAs, which form the nucleic acid backbone of ribosomes and is therefore essential ...

Ribosomal RNA is often modified with chemical tags that ... "We think the bacteria's ribosomes might be altering its structure just enough to prevent an antibiotic from binding effectively ...
