Chloride ions, best known for helping cells maintain fluid balance and electrical stability, may also play a more direct role ...

When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits that RNA before it is translated into protein. Many genes can be processed and ...

The IDR in TAF2 steers the protein away from active gene promoters, where it participates in transcription initiation, to nuclear speckles — liquid-like compartments that concentrate factors for RNA ...

Cancers driven by hiccups in RNA processing can’t hide from our immune system, according to new work published today in Cell. A cross-institutional team Fred Hutch Cancer Center and Memorial Sloan ...

New RNA-Seq innovations include a regional sequencing hub and an RNA preservation solution enabling ambient shipping. These ...

A research team has discovered intricate molecular mechanisms driving the RNA processing defects that lead to Huntington's disease and link HD with other neurodegenerative disorders such as ...

A protein called LENG8 traps defective RNA molecules inside the cell nucleus before they can reach the cytoplasm and disrupt normal cellular function, according to a study published in Molecular Cell ...

To build proteins, cells rely on a molecule called transfer RNA, or tRNA. tRNAs act like protein-building couriers, where they read the genetic instructions from messenger RNA, mRNA, and deliver the ...
