An international team of researchers including scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) have developed a way ...

Prostate cancer is the second-most common cancer in men. A new study from Thomas Jefferson University uncovered a new ...

The tRNA, part of our genetic code, acts as a molecular messenger crucial for building proteins, which are essential for the body's structure and function, it said, adding a mutation in tRNA can ...

An international team of researchers including scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) have developed a way to reveal the smallest ...

Researchers say discoveries could expand the CRISPR toolbox and lead to more efficient, rapid diagnostic tools for detecting COVID-19, influenza, and RSV.

There are different kinds of ribonucleic acids that play essential roles in many aspects of molecular biology, including the creation of proteins from gene sequences in DNA. One type of ribonucleic ...

Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) deliver specific amino acids to ribosomes during translation of messenger RNA into proteins. The abundance of tRNAs can therefore have a profound impact on cell physiology, but ...

A groundbreaking study has shed light on the critical role of a tRNA methylation enzyme, TRMT10A, in supporting brain function. The findings reveal how the absence of TRMT10A leads to a reduction in ...

The various identities of cells, whether they are in the brain, heart, kidney, or any other tissue, are defined by the genes they expressed. In basic terms, the genes that are active in a cell are ...

Loss of TRMT10A led to a decrease in the levels of initiator methionine tRNA (tRNA iMet) and a specific glutamine tRNA (tRNA Gln). This reduction weakened the initiation of protein synthesis for ...
