A study has found that an ancient protein motif that binds to nucleic acids is functionally "ambidextrous." This means that ...

Rather, DNA ... difference. It did. Not only did the complementary bases now fit together perfectly (i.e., A with T and C with G), with each pair held together by hydrogen bonds, but the structure ...

UC Irvine scientists developed bioluminescent RNA tags, "tiny guiding lights," using luciferase to track RNA in real-time, ...

Immunologists from the Institute have been the first to uncover a role for a family of RNA binding proteins in the function ...

Huntington's disease is a genetic disorder that kills nerve cells in the brain, causing people to lose their cognitive and ...

Mounting evidence from genome studies indicates that, contrary to received wisdom, our species has undergone profound ...

Nearly half of sequencing data labeled as endometriosis lacks true disease representation, highlighting the urgent need for more diverse and accurate tissue sampling to advance research in this ...

In higher eukaryotes, a vast variety of RNAs is transcribed from genomic DNAs. The transcribed RNAs are subjected to RNA processing steps, such as splicing, ...
