Detailed analyses also estimated the rate of protein translocation to be about 2.2 amino acid residues per second, and a ...

How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins? The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA.

A team of CiRA researchers has uncovered the crucial role of EIF3D—a protein translational regulator—in primed pluripotency.

When your social media account starts spewing out nonsensical or threatening status updates, it's safe to assume that it has ...

As warehouses go, nuclei are more like libraries than bank vaults. Too many cellular components need access to the genome to ...

The translocation of proteins involved in apoptosis can be semi-quantitated by flow cytometry. Fluorescently labelling the organelles and the protein under investigation allows the protein to be ...

These `cells' within cells represent an attractive model system for studies of the membrane translocation and assembly of proteins. Mitochondria are derived from endosymbiotic bacteria. During ...

Inherited retinal degeneration (IRD) encompasses various disorders characterized by progressive loss of retinal photoreceptor cells, ultimately leading to vision loss and blindness.

This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages - transcription and translation. When a gene is to be expressed, the base sequence of DNA is copied or transcribed into mRNA (messenger RNA).
