RNA is synthesized from DNA by an enzyme known as RNA polymerase during a process ... and other RNA molecules make up the critical protein synthesis machinery in ribosomes.

Now, new research in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology describes how the enzyme RapA prevents R-loop formation in E. coli, with far-reaching implications for how all cells mai ...

Transcription, the initial stage of gene expression in both humans and bacteria, is carried out by RNA polymerase II, a protein "machine ... that instructs the synthesis of proteins.

This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages - transcription ... is caused by an enzyme (helicase enzyme). The enzyme RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA in a non-coding region just ...

RNA polymerase enzymes read the DNA sequence and synthesize messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules, which carry the genetic information to the ribosomes for protein synthesis. translation is the process by ...

Rifaximin is a semi-synthetic derivative of rifampin and acts by binding to the beta-subunit of bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase ... of bacterial protein synthesis and consequently inhibits ...
