Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have reconciled two closely related but contentious mechanisms underlying ...

In the vast and often unseen world of microscopic life, a recent discovery may force scientists to rethink what it means to ...

It has genes for ribosomes, tRNAs, and mRNAs. These components are the scaffolding of life: the tools by which cells read ...

The fact that Apple’s new transcription API is faster than Whisper is great news. But how accurate is it? We tested it out.

In academia, information is generated by the hour. Lectures, interviews, group discussions and conferences are rich in ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have reconciled two closely related but contentious mechanisms underlying transcription, the ...

A cell protein previously believed only to provide a scaffolding for DNA has also been shown to directly influence DNA ...

Because they rely on hosts for a majority of functions, viruses aren’t considered alive. But entities like ‘Sukunaarchaeum ...

Mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (mtDNA) plays a crucial role in energy production and abnormalities in mtDNA are linked to various diseases. However, its regulatory mechanism remains ...

A cell protein previously believed only to provide a scaffolding for DNA has also been shown to directly influence DNA transcription into RNA – the first step of the process by which an organism ...

Within a few hundred milliseconds, the DNA double helix unwinds to form a node known as the transcription bubble, so that one exposed DNA strand can be copied into a complementary RNA strand.

This suggests that the absence of TEFM disrupts the proper balance between the replication and transcription processes, which has consequences on mtDNA maintenance and expression. Another significant ...
