Northwestern University researchers have identified structural features in engineered cell receptors that correlate with ...

RNA splicing is crucial for gene expression. After DNA is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA), noncoding parts called introns are removed, and the coding parts are spliced together.

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, ...

Human genes that encode proteins often contain non-coding segments known as introns. Removing introns is crucial for the proper expression of genetic information. Understanding how our cells ...

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a major health concern worldwide and requires effective preventive measures. Lp(a) (lipoprotein [a]) has recently garnered attention as an independent risk ...

UMD researchers have discovered key mechanisms in gene regulation that could improve the design of RNA-based medicines.

This manuscript describes an important finding of the transcriptional control of a chimeric gene transfer agents (GTA) cluster in Bartonella by a processive anti-termination factor (BrrG). The ...

Their sheer size — over 4,500 nucleotides of RNA and 47 proteins ... the cell while DNA, the hardier of the two nucleic acids, took over as the repository of genetic information.

The current human tissue-based study provides compelling evidence correlating hippocampal expressions of RNA guanine-rich ... the dependence of rG4 structure on stress and the extreme power of rG4s at ...

(Nanowerk News) DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel motion by enzymatic RNA degradation. Essentially, chemical ...
