What have we learned about RNA structure and function so far ... these rRNA genes to be able to manufacture the large number of ribosomes required by a cell. Mature rRNAs are produced by cleavage ...

Caption A figure of the 80S ribosome structure. This image relates to an article that appeared in the Nov. 26, 2010, issue of Science, published by AAAS.The study, by Dr. Adam Ben-Shem at IGBMC ...

This came as a complete surprise, says Barna: Everyone had expected the cause to be a mutation in a gene that orchestrated development, not one involved in ribosome structure. Ribosomes ...

To stem the surging antibiotic resistance public health crisis, scientists seek solutions inside the mechanics of bacterial ...

The rRNA molecules fold into complex secondary and tertiary structures, forming domains and motifs that are essential for ribosome function. The rRNA structures also provide binding sites for ...

including structure, function, and regulation. The production of ribosomes begins when RNA polymerase I (Pol I) synthesizes pre-rRNA, a precursor transcript of the mature ribosomal RNA (rRNA) that ...

Differences in the ribosomal densities of the two daughters produced by a mother Escherichia coli could explain the asymmetry of aging and growth rate in previously reported such daughter pairs.

Researchers have uncovered an unexpected vulnerability that could change how we fight deadly infections without using more ...

Cells contain ribosomes, molecular machines which produce ... However, in the ribosomal structure, "tails" of several ...
