DNA transcription is the vital first step needed for switching on our genes. For a gene to be switched on, it must be acted ...

RNA polymerase binds to a region just before the gene, called the promoter, before moving down the DNA to the gene. Enhancers are regions of DNA that act as molecular switches for turning genes on or ...

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

Several types of RNA help regulate gene expression ... and thus can bind those regions to facilitate polymerase recruitment and DNA looping, which brings the transcription machinery into contact with ...

Abstract Research of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Fibromyalgia (FM), two acquired chronic illnesses affecting mainly females, has failed to ascertain their frequent ...

Announcing a new publication for Acta Materia Medica journal. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from published datasets were obtained to investigate the expression and dysregulation of ...

Now, researchers used cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) to elucidate the structure of the Nipah virus polymerase complex ... for both transcription and RNA replication and mutations that have ...
