Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) deliver specific amino acids to ribosomes during translation of messenger RNA into proteins. The abundance of tRNAs can therefore have a profound impact on cell physiology, but ...

Prostate cancer is the second-most common cancer in men. A new study from Thomas Jefferson University uncovered a new ...

There are different kinds of ribonucleic acids that play essential roles in many aspects of molecular biology, including the creation of proteins from gene sequences in DNA. One type of ribonucleic ...

Loss of TRMT10A led to a decrease in the levels of initiator methionine tRNA (tRNA iMet) and a specific glutamine tRNA (tRNA Gln). This reduction weakened the initiation of protein synthesis for ...

An international team of researchers including scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) have developed a way ...

Genetic information encoded in genomic DNA is transcribed to mRNAs and then the codons on mRNA are decoded by transfer RNAs (tRNAs) during protein synthesis. tRNAs deliver amino acids to ribosomes and ...

A new advanced, high-throughput sequencing technique should enable scientists to have a firmer grasp on the activity of naturally occurring microbiomes in response to real-world conditions and diet.

The various identities of cells, whether they are in the brain, heart, kidney, or any other tissue, are defined by the genes they expressed. In basic terms, the genes that are active in a cell are ...

During a call with Alltrna co-founder and CIO Theonie Anastassiadis and CEO Michelle C. Werner, I’m immediately called upon to dust off my Biology 101 notes to grasp the significance and scope of ...

A groundbreaking study has shed light on the critical role of a tRNA methylation enzyme, TRMT10A, in supporting brain function. The findings reveal how the absence of TRMT10A leads to a reduction in ...
