This study has shown that HSV-1 is an "opportunistic interior designer" of human cells. | Genetics And Genomics ...

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

Scientists have discovered that starving and then refeeding worms can reveal surprising secrets about aging. When a specific ...

While basic similarities in gene transcription exist between prokaryotes and eukaryotes—including the fact that RNA polymerase binds upstream of the gene on its promoter to initiate the process ...

Worms offer a simple yet powerful whole-organism model for studying senescence, mirroring mammalian aging processes and ...

In genetics, it has generally been accepted that each gene has one transcription initiation site, located downstream of a core promoter region and typically around a TATA box—a DNA sequence rich ...

Regeneration, the ability to heal damaged or lost tissues, is both an everyday and a real-life superpower. Health research ...

This newly found organism doesn’t act like a virus or a cell, and that could change everything we know about biology.

Gene transcription is a fundamental biological process that involves copying the genetic information stored in a specific segment of DNA into a complementary RNA molecule. This process is the first ...
