The being in question is a microbe called Sukunaarchaeum mirabile. Preliminary research says it stretches the definition of ...

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

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have reconciled two closely related but contentious mechanisms underlying transcription, the process of converting genetic information in DNA into ...

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

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

image: DNA transcription is a crucial process in the expression of genetic information, as it converts the information stored in DNA into messenger RNA, which can then be translated into proteins.

In prokaryotic cells, transcription (DNA to mRNA) and translation (mRNA to protein) are so closely linked that translation usually begins before transcription is complete.

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

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

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 ...
