RNA is a central biological macromolecule, now widely harnessed in medicine and nanotechnology. Like proteins, RNA function ...

Life's instructions are written in DNA, but it is the enzyme RNA polymerase II (Pol II) that reads the script, transcribing ...

In case you've faced some hurdles solving the clue, Messenger molecule, we've got the answer for you. Crossword puzzles offer a fantastic opportunity to engage your mind, enjoy leisure time, and test ...

In mid-2023, just as it seemed like the North American auto industry had settled on CCS1 as the default fast-charging plug, everything upended as Ford, then General Motors, then everyone else ...

A new type of all-carbon molecule has been studied under normal room-temperature conditions. This marks only the second time this has ever been done, after spherical buckyballs were synthesised 35 ...

An under-the-radar micronutrient is having a moment. Queuosine — just call it “Q” — is a molecule that humans can only get from foods and gut bacteria. It’s has been known to microbiologists for ...

Guoping Li, PhD, of the Department of Anesthesia, Critical Care & Pain Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital, is the lead author and Saumya Das, MD, PhD, of the Cardiovascular Research Center at ...

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 ...

This study introduces a dual-particle emulsion design that separates sensing and stabilization roles, enabling robust SERS detection in complex biological and environmental samples. (Nanowerk ...

When RNA molecules are synthesized by cells — a critical process in the creation of proteins and other cellular functions — they typically undergo a series of “folding” events that determine their ...

After a year of fastidious planning, a microscopic sample of the ultra-rare radioactive element berkelium arrived at a Berkeley Lab. With just 48 hours to experiment before it would become unusable, a ...
