Yale researchers have now developed a method to map and measure the structure of RNA as it develops, an advance that may help ...

Failure of a gene-reading quality-control mechanism called Integrator leaves cells littered with abnormal RNA strands that ...

A new study has revealed how two morphogens, WNT and Sonic Hedgehog, act as molecular "traffic cops," directing early human ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

These results challenge assumptions about 16S rRNA gene conservation and emphasize the need for tailored primer design informed by comprehensive sequence databases. We advocate for a multi-primer ...

The German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina has awarded ETH Zurich Materials scientist, Nicola Spaldin, the Carus Medal 2024 for her outstanding research work. The award will be presented on 22 ...
