An elegant screening strategy unveils a molecular actor that connects widespread changes in mRNA processing with a nutrient-sensing protein modification.

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules may be best known for their job ferrying the genetic information encoded in DNA to a cell's ...

When RNA molecules are synthesized by cells—a critical process in the creation of proteins and other cellular functions—they ...

Among the major classes of RNAs in the cell, tRNAs remain the most difficult to characterize via deep sequencing approaches, as tRNA structure and nucleotide modifications can each interfere with cDNA ...

The largest study to date of most common form of testicular cancer has uncovered a possible link between disease risk and variations in the genes controlling cell shape and movement. By investigating ...

ABSTRACT: Aims: To utilize microbial source tracking to detect and differentiate sources of fecal bacteria in Texas, addressing the limitations of dated culture-based Enterolert tests, which quantify ...

However, these are not the only ways that bacteria can respond under stress. Bacteria can change the order of genes on their chromosome (the chromosome structure) and/or the three-dimensional ...

However, existing macrophage-based therapies have had limitations, particularly due to the short-lived nature of gene modifications, which reduce therapeutic efficacy. The research team developed ...

The donkey has a well-developed hindgut structure with a length of more than 4.5 m and ... in gut microbes in QH from the Tibetan Plateau and DZ by using 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing and ...

We found through 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis of 1,289 participants, in which 834 participants in the discovery cohort and 455 participants in the validation cohort, significant differences in ...
