Ribosomal subunit assembly and biogenesis constitute a fundamental process vital for cellular protein synthesis across all domains of life. This complex, multi-step pathway involves the transcription ...
Scientists are exploring how RNA might have jump-started life four billion years ago and how it's now advancing drug ...
Inside our cells, ribosomes—the tireless "protein factories" of life—have just shown off a new skill they haven't used in billions of years. A research team has become the first in the world to ...
Make no mistake, RNA is the main character of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Thomas Cech’s new book. The Catalyst is part ode to the oft-overlooked molecule and part detailed history of the scientists ...
A new study shows the isolation and sequencing of more than a century-old RNA molecules from a Tasmanian tiger specimen preserved at room temperature in a museum collection. This resulted in the ...
