Using ribosome engineering (RE), researchers from Shinshu University introduced mutations affecting the protein synthesis ...

With the New Year upon us, WADA provided a reminder of the prohibited substances and methods in effect for 2026.

Ribosomes can act as stress detectors when they stall and collide, signaling that something is wrong inside the cell. Researchers have shown how ZAK recognizes these collisions and triggers protective ...

Ribosomes are the cell's protein factories, which read the genetic code and assemble the proteins that every organism needs to live. But as far as how ribosomes themselves were formed, tantalizingly ...

When we think about the blueprint of life, we tend to focus on DNA — the genetic code stored in every cell of our bodies. But DNA is only part of the story. For those instructions to matter, they must ...

A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center scientists has identified a specific stage of neurodevelopment when differentiating neural cells produce fewer ribosomes, which are responsible for making ...

How does a cell know when it’s been damaged? A molecular alarm, set off by mutated RNA and colliding ribosomes, signals danger. When the sun shines on your skin, what does it hit? When it causes a ...
