Researchers have reconstructed transcription in human mitochondria in unprecedented detail, revealing potential drug targets ...

How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins? The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA. But ...

In the fast-evolving field of medical science, a new artificial intelligence model may be about to change the way mRNA-based ...

Aging, neurological diseases and our bodies' stress response are all linked to the tiny power plants inside each cell known ...

Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called mRNA. Then, another molecule called a ribosome reads the mRNA, translating it ...

When the molecular machinery in our cells gets to work transcribing the genetic information encoded in DNA into messenger RNA (mRNA), it pauses shortly after starting. Known as promoter-proximal ...
