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

Nerve cells have amazing strategies to save energy and still perform the most important of their tasks. Researchers from the ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...

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 ...

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 ...

tRNAs are highly conserved across all domains of life, from bacteria to archaea and eukaryotes. This evolutionary conservation highlights the fundamental role of tRNA in the essential process of ...
