If DNA is a book, then how is it read? Learn more about the DNA transcription process, where DNA is converted to RNA, a more portable set of instructions for the cell. The process of transcription ...
DNA is essentially a storage molecule. It contains all of the instructions a cell needs to sustain itself. These instructions are found within genes, which are sections of DNA made up of specific ...
With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology ...
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 ...
Mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (mtDNA) is essential for cellular energy production and overall cell function.
A new method for mapping torsion provides insights into the ways that the genome responds to the torsion generated by RNA polymerase II.
Researchers at Georgia State University used the Summit supercomputer to study an elaborate molecular pathway called ...
Researchers have now uncovered the role of mitochondrial transcription elongation factor in maintaining the balance between ...
