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

This study is the first to demonstrate that certain tRNA introns influence gene expression. Scientists have discovered that ...

A vaginal yeast infection is caused by an overgrowth of yeast (a type of fungus) in the body. People with diabetes are more prone to getting these infections because their blood sugar levels are often ...

The crystal structure of pseudouridine synthase I from Escherichia coli, which, for example, modifies positions 38, 39 and/or 40 in tRNA, reveals a dimeric protein that contains two positively ...

After more than a decade of work, researchers have reached a major milestone in their efforts to re-engineer life in the lab, putting together the final chromosome in a synthetic yeast (Saccharomyces ...
