Bacterial ribosomes are central to protein synthesis, and their regulation is vital for adaptation to environmental stresses. Under conditions such as nutrient deprivation, cold shock or hypoxia ...

Inside our cells, ribosomes—the tireless "protein factories" of life—have just shown off a new skill they haven't used in ...

Bacterial ribosomes are essential for protein synthesis, yet they can become stalled during translation when encountering aberrant mRNAs or premature termination signals. To preserve the ...

TAU’s vice president for research and development said that they worked on the project for two-and-a-half years and were very ...

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 ...

Science also means different and conflicting aspirations among scientific communities, political tensions, and unpredictable ...

In the vast and often unseen world of microscopic life, a recent discovery may force scientists to rethink what it means to be alive. Nestled inside a tiny plankton cell, researchers found a ...

A fungus linked to the deaths of archaeologists who excavated the tomb of King Tutankhamun in the 1920s could be used to ...

Analysis - In November 1922, archaeologist Howard Carter peered through a small hole into the sealed tomb of King Tutankhamun ...

To build proteins, cells rely on a molecule called transfer RNA, or tRNA. tRNAs act like protein-building couriers, where ...

Imagine two people talking over a walkie-talkie set. Successful communication depends on them being tuned to the same frequency. If others try to communicate nearby, interference can occur, and ...

A single β-lactam exposure rapidly drives stable multidrug resistance in RecA-deficient bacteria through an SOS-independent mechanism involving oxidative stress-induced mutagenesis and ...
