Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae and certain types of bacteria synthesise carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and typically water, using light as an energy source. The process ...

the Bonn researchers have now investigated internal ribosomal entry sites (IRESes). These are specialized, folded sequences within an RNA strand that are particularly well known in the genetic ...

Interestingly, neither Herpes simplex virus (HSV-GFP) nor Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV-GFP) infection induced the formation of LARP7 puncta in Jurkat cells, suggesting that the induction of LARP7 ...

In zebrafish, these two ribosome types are expressed from different genomic loci and also differ in their ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequence. To characterize this dual ribosome system further, we examined ...

The nucleolus is a dense, spherical region found in a cell’s nucleus. It houses the ribosomal DNA (rDNA), which is a segment of DNA that codes for the core parts of ribosomes. Ribosomes are tiny ...

6 Mendell said, “Almost all of the factors that we know that are involved in building ribosomes are things that positively regulate ribosomal biogenesis.” This is undesirable because therapeutics that ...

Overproduced yeast ribosomal protein (RP) Rpl26 fails to assemble into ribosomes and is degraded in the nucleus/nucleolus by a ubiquitin-proteasome system quality control pathway comprising the E2 ...
