The discovery that brain ageing may be driven by jammed-up protein factories could lead to better ways to help us stay sharp ...

Protein-making slows with age, causing traffic jams in brain cells. Misfolded proteins pile up, harming memory before ...

A KAIST research team led by Professor Won Do Heo (Department of Biological Sciences) has developed an optogenetic platform, ...

Mammalian cells are tricky evolution hosts. They grow slowly, contain large genomes, and regulate protein behavior through ...

Researchers identified that two cyclin D genes, ccndx and ccnd2a, independently regulate distinct stem and progenitor cell ...

A WEHI-led study reveals that blocking minor splicing – an RNA process critical for cell division – reduces tumour growth in ...

Reiter and his colleagues wanted to understand how these cells develop, so they used a technique called single cell RNA sequencing to see which genes turned on and off in individual multiciliated ...

'Junk' RNA segments play role in protein production, cell stress response Study is first to show some tRNA introns affect gene expression Date: February 11, 2025 Source: Ohio State University ...

Led by Ryan Flynn, MD, PhD, assistant professor of stem cell and regenerative biology at Harvard Medical School (HMS), the study identified one RNA-binding protein on the cell surface, NPM1, as a ...

An RNA switch is a synthetic mRNA molecule designed to regulate the translation of a gene in response to specific intracellular signals, such as microRNAs (miRNAs) or proteins. These switches act ...
