In the first image (left), a molecular simulation on a supercomputer at Los Alamos National Laboratory reveals how the antibiotic evernimicin (light blue) interacts with transfer RNA molecules (gold) ...

Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) perform a critical function in the creation of new proteins. Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules are transcribed from active genes and are 'read' by cellular machinery, which adds new ...

The chemical steps in an important cellular modification process that adds a chemical tag to some RNAs have been revealed in a new study. Interfering with this process in humans can lead to neuronal ...

A research team have recently published their article, "Rationally designed pooled CRISPRi-seq uncovers an inhibitor of ...

Memphis, Tenn.—April 5, 2023) Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital revealed that human ribosomes decode messenger RNA (mRNA) 10 times slower than bacterial ribosomes, but do so more ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital report that human ribosomes decode messenger RNA (mRNA) 10 times slower than bacterial ribosomes, but do so more accurately. The study “mRNA ...

Bacteria, those tiny, often-misunderstood microorganisms, have just gave up a groundbreaking secret that could transform our approach to combating infections. Bacteria are notorious for banding ...
