Gene expression is linked to RNA transcription, which cannot happen without RNA polymerase. However, this is where the similarities between prokaryote and eukaryote expression end. Central to the ...

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology ...

Plants survive cold by adjusting at cellular level. Scientists discovered that the PORCUPINE protein helps plants adapt to ...

Genes have to be expressed in the right place, at the time, and at the right levels. Scientists wanted to know more about how ...

On the synthetic side of this balance, recall that protein production starts at transcription (DNA to RNA) and continues with translation (RNA to protein). Thus, control of these processes plays a ...

Biologists have discovered a new type of RNA-splicing regulation that helps to determine which protein-coding exons will be included in messenger RNA transcripts. RNA splicing is a cellular ...

Enzymes called RNA polymerases transcribe DNA into RNA. RNA is the intermediary that carries the information contained within DNA to the ribosomes, where the genetic information is synthesized into ...

The following is a summary of “Transcriptomic insights into early mechanisms underlying post-chikungunya chronic inflammatory joint disease,” published in the February 2025 issue of Scientific Reports ...

Recently, his group analyzed protein-coding RNA transcripts isolated from single cells and fluid collected from the lungs of PRRSV-infected pigs. They monitored immune cell alterations triggered ...
