Every living cell transcribes DNA into RNA. This process begins when an enzyme called RNA polymerase (RNAP) clamps onto DNA. Within a few hundred milliseconds, the DNA double helix unwinds to form a ...
New tech reveals findings that address long-standing theories about how bacteria begin the process of making RNA from DNA. Every living cell transcribes DNA into RNA. This process begins when an ...
Enzymes called RNA polymerases transcribe DNA into RNA. RNA is the intermediary that carries the information contained within DNA to the ribosomes, where the genetic information is synthesized into ...
When the molecular machinery in our cells gets to work transcribing the genetic information encoded in DNA into messenger RNA (mRNA), it pauses shortly after starting. Known as promoter-proximal ...
Genetically speaking, it's a bacterium's worst-case scenario: During transcription, newly minted RNA sticks to its DNA template, forming a 3-stranded structure known as an R-loop. While these ...
New research reveals that a fundamental process in bacterial gene regulation called sigma cycle, long thought to involve the release of a key protein, sigma factor, might not be universal, opening new ...
Recently, demands in RNA manufacturing for long-chain RNAs exceeding 100 nucleotides, such as single guide RNA (sgRNA) for genome editing, have been increasing. Generally, these types of RNA are ...
Every living cell must interpret its genetic code - a sequence of chemical letters that governs countless cellular functions. A new study by researchers from the Center for Theoretical Biological ...
New research reveals how the RapA enzyme protects against R-loop cytotoxicity in E. coli. Genetically speaking, it's a bacterium's worst-case scenario: during transcription, newly minted RNA sticks to ...
