Protein synthesis is vital for life, translating genetic information from DNA to functional proteins through transcription ...

The model calculations in the present study show that proteins are therefore preferably synthesized in the branched, tapering ...

When Xiao Wang applied to faculty jobs, many of the institutions where she interviewed thought her research proposal - to ...

The inherent instability of mRNA allows cells to rapidly adjust protein levels in response to changing conditions by controlling the synthesis and degradation of specific mRNA molecules. mRNA vaccines ...

Researchers from the Tanenbaum group at the Hubrecht Institute have developed a new microscopy technique to observe how ...

Nerve cells have amazing strategies to save energy and still perform the most important of their tasks. Researchers found that the neuronal energy conservation program determines the location and ...

The research team was able to show that the synthesis and degradation ... The mature mRNA is then translated into the required protein. Thanks to advances in biochemistry and microscopy, it ...

Neurons balance energy efficiency by regulating protein synthesis based on molecular properties like stability and size.

Researchers from the Tanenbaum group at the Hubrecht Institute have developed a new microscopy technique to observe how ribosomes function in cells. With this method, they can monitor individual ...
