Researchers introduced a yeast enzyme, ScURA, into human cells, enabling nucleotide synthesis independent of mitochondrial ...

Nucleotide synthesis—the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA—is essential for cell growth and division. In most ...

Nucleotide synthesis-the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA-is essential for cell growth and division. In most animal cells, this process depends closely on properly functioning ...

An interdisciplinary research team led by Professor Dr. Bent Brachvogel has examined how mitochondria influence the premature aging of the skeleton. Mitochondria play a key role in the production of ...

Chilean researchers have characterized for the first time a novel duplication of exon 2 of the PAH gene, responsible for phenylketonuria (PKU), a hereditary metabolic disorder that causes the ...

Cellular findings show Telomir-Zn modulates intracellular metal balance linked to oxidative stress, mitochondrial ...

Reduction in mitochondrial activity in multiple sclerosis contributes to Purkinje cell loss. Researchers at the University of California, Riverside (CA, USA) have demonstrated the role mitochondrial ...

Mitochondrial diseases are severe, often untreatable, and they leave human cells unable to grow normally without outside help. A new study published in Nature Metabolism now shows that a single gene ...
