Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed a new model that simulates the internal environment of a ribosome—the cellular site of protein synthesis. Using computer simulations ...

and no queue of ribosomes was observed at the 3′ end, indicating that termination is not limiting. Thus, the first two models were eliminated by RDM analysis, leaving the third model ...

A virus that infects ocean phytoplankton was found to encode a ribosomal protein, a first for eukaryotic viruses. Researchers ...

In cells, ribosomes (shown as grey blobs) read RNA messages and convert the information into ... The scientists expect that ...
