Scientists observe ribosomal cooperation that prevents pauses in protein synthesis, revealing new dynamics for cellular ...

The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC) works under the auspices of Human Genome Organisation (HUGO) and is the only worldwide authority that assigns standardised symbols and names to human genes ...

There is not a lot of cell-free RNA in the blood, and around 95% of it is the ribosomal RNA that makes up the cellular structures that manufacture proteins. The new blood test analyzes messenger ...

The Rice team's new method, called RNA-addressable modification (RAM), bypasses these hurdles by using a synthetic catalytic RNA (cat-RNA) to "barcode" ribosomal RNA (rRNA) inside living cells.

Ribosomes are made of proteins and a special type of RNA molecule called ribosomal RNA (rRNA). rRNA molecules are the target of chemical modifications, affecting the ribosome's function.

Here, we identified that in mycobacteria, deletion of the 16S ribosomal RNA methyltransferase gidB led to increased ribosomal discrimination of mischarged tRNAs. Discrimination only occurred in ...

To avoid this, Mulenge adopted an alternative method called ribosomal tagging, or RiboTag in short. Instead of sorting the cells to examine the RNA molecules, RiboTag uses a special way of ...

The process by which this occurs is called transcription. RNA polymerase I 2 is responsible for synthesizing most ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcripts. These transcripts are produced within the nucleolus, ...

Each Tetrahymena carries thousands of copies of the gene for ribosomal RNA, a molecule that builds proteins. While studying that RNA, Cech’s team discovered something “whose existence violated ...

or existing as noncoding RNA (ncRNA). The latter include ribosomal RNA (rRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), small nuclear RNA (snRNA), long ncRNA, small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), and short hairpin RNA ...
