Advanced microscopy techniques have revealed how ribosomes recruit to mRNA while it's being transcribed, potentially enabling the development of new antibiotics that target this pathway in bacteria.

During translation, multiple ribosomes travel along the nucleic acid chain to build polypeptides that become functional proteins. Occasionally, these molecular decoders pause on the mRNA, either ...

Researchers from the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid, Spain, digitally reconstructed the ribcages of four ...

Researchers used a capsule engineered to prevent stomach acids from degrading liquid mRNA therapy to treat inflammatory bowel ...

An easy method for efficiently identifying proteins that interact with bioactive molecules has been developed by chemical biologists at RIKEN. This innovation, published in ChemBioChem, could help to ...

Borrowing from the anti-inflammatory properties of olive oil, Penn Engineers used a century-old chemical reaction to redesign ...

They observed that the mRNA emerging from RNAP was bound to the small ribosomal subunit (30S) particularly efficiently when ribosomal protein bS1 was present, which helps the mRNA unfold in ...

In this episode presented by Eclipsebio, BioSpace's head of insights Lori Ellis discusses mRNA and srRNA with Andy Geall of ...

By sequencing ribosome-bound mRNA fragments, the team was able to quickly pinpoint where ribosomes were actively translating RNA into proteins, providing direct evidence of which viral open ...
