In human cells, only a small proportion of the information written in genes is used to produce proteins. How does the cell ...

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 ...

When Xiao Wang applied to faculty jobs, many of the institutions where she interviewed thought her research proposal - to ...

While billions pour into pharmaceutical biotech, officials and experts warn there’s much less private investment in products more relevant to the military, like body armor materials, anti-corrosion ...

A sophisticated molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures the accurate assembly of genetic information from the genome into ...

A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing is a ...
