When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits ...

A collaborative study by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, and University of Southern California reports ...

Bodybuilders and cellular mechanisms agree generating protein is a heavy lift. To complete the task, cells rely on complexes called spliceosomes. These molecular machines snip extra bits out of our ...

Noncoding RNA plays essential roles in transcriptional control and chromatin silencing. At Arabidopsis thaliana FLC, antisense transcription quantitatively influences transcriptional output, but the ...

A University of California, Irvine-led research team has discovered intricate molecular mechanisms driving the RNA processing defects that lead to Huntington's disease and link HD with other ...
