How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins? The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA. But ...

The cells in living organisms are constantly making proteins. Ribosomes, the RNA-protein complexes that make other proteins, ...

In the fast-evolving field of medical science, a new artificial intelligence model may be about to change the way mRNA-based drugs and vaccines are designed. Developed through a collaboration between ...

Imagine a cancer treatment that precisely targets malignant cells, leaving healthy ones untouched. Consider, also, a cancer treatment that corrects abnormal protein synthesis to produce healthy ...

Researchers develop a self-regulating mRNA medicine that adjusts protein production based on disease-related signals. A research team from The University of Osaka and Institute of Science Tokyo has ...

Aging selectively impairs the production of crucial DNA- and RNA-binding proteins, which contributes to hallmarks of aging in the brains of killifish, according to a new study. The findings advance ...

BK and CaV1.3 channels interact early during biogenesis, assembling intracellularly before membrane localization, indicating coordinated processes for functional coupling.

A virus relies on the host's translation machinery to replicate itself and become infectious. Translation efficiency ...

Imagine a breakthrough in cancer treatment where only malignant cells are targeted, sparing healthy host cells; or patients with abnormal protein synthesis are treated to produce a healthy protein.
