For a Brandeis undergraduate, the Brandeis Core Science requirement has inevitably brought you to a classroom where the words ...

An international team of scientists have used advanced microscopy to image how ribosomes recruit to mRNA. Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell ...

Hosted by the Department of Molecular Biology, Cell Biology and Biochemistry, the event is held on a near-annual basis to ...

The nucleolus serves as the central hub for ribosomal DNA (rDNA) transcription and ribosome biogenesis, processes essential for protein synthesis and cellular proliferation. rDNA transcription is ...

A recent study published in the journal Aging sheds light on how aging interferes with the brain’s ability to produce key ...

Myristoylation is a co-translational process catalyzed by N-myristoyltransferases (NMTs) on ribosomes, but its mechanism ...

A newly developed luciferase-based reporter can detect problems in protein translocation and disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Inspired by natural mechanisms found in ...

Exploring the upstream transcription factors or proteins interacting with MdMYB10 is an important way to enrich the complex network of anthocyanin synthesis. In this study, the upstream regulatory ...

Chemists at UCL have shown how two of biology's most fundamental ingredients, RNA (ribonucleic acid) and amino acids, could ...
