A team of scientists at the Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection Research (HIRI) in Würzburg and the University of ...

HIV-1, like other viruses, lacks the machinery to produce its own proteins and must rely on the host cell to translate its genetic instructions. After ...

Researchers mapped HIV-1’s translation strategy, revealing RNA elements like uORFs, iORFs and an intricate frameshift site ...

The current human tissue-based study provides convincing evidence correlating hippocampal expressions of RNA guanine-rich G-quadruplexes with aging and with Alzheimer's Disease presence and severity.

Antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections like human metapneumovirus (HMPV). HMPV affects the respiratory system, and antibiotics, designed ...

“The whole point of condensates is to separate biological reactions to help them work efficiently, but now when you have ...

New tactics in controlling infection are sorely needed, with antibiotic-resistant bacteria expected to claim as many as 2 ...

Ribosomes undergo changes in conformational state, striking different, well-orchestrated poses that allow strands of RNA to be fed through the structure's two subunits where instructions carried ...

Researchers at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa have discovered that a virus, FloV-SA2, encodes one of the proteins needed to make ribosomes, the central engines in all cells that translate ...
