Scientists observe ribosomal cooperation that prevents pauses in protein synthesis, revealing new dynamics for cellular ...

Mapping a human cell gives researchers a view of subcellular architecture and sheds light on how cancer develops.

These fundamental findings offer a novel mechanism by which rubrerythrin tubules encapsulate encapsulin to prevent oxidative stress in Pyrococcus furiosus. However, there are a few reasonable concerns ...

A groundbreaking antibiotic discovery might finally tip the balance in the global fight against drug-resistant bacteria.

Scientists from the Netherlands Cancer Institute have now shown that cancer cells can use these ribosomes to boost their invisibility cloak, helping them hide from the immune system. The team ...

Some bacteria eat sugar. Some survive in boiling acid. And now, apparently, some breathe electricity like they’re powering ...

The DNA is basically a book of recipes. Each recipe tells the cells in our bodies how to make specific proteins by combining ...

The ribosome is a large assembly of proteins and ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) that functions to translate messenger RNAs (mRNAs) into proteins. The ribosome catalyzes the assembly of amino acids into ...

They found that cells that were exposed to compounds that inhibit ribosomes had unusually high levels of m 6 A-containing messenger RNAs, which are normally low. This implicated the ribosome in ...

Researchers have revealed the mechanism underlying GPCR function using a GPS nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique.
