In a new study, Chinese researchers have discovered the previously unrecognized role of alternative splicing of the DOC2A ...

The report, published in Nature, reveals that polyamines bind to specific domains in proteins and operate as a metabolic shield against modifications ...

Treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) depends on knowing what goes wrong inside cells. A new study suggests that two genetic ...

A paper in Molecular Biology and Evolution, reports that Italian bears living in areas with many villages evolved and became smaller and less aggressive. Humans have long shaped the environments in ...

The student will investigate how protein arginine methylation, a type of post-translational modification commonly found in RNA-binding proteins, regulates the function of an evolutionarily conserved ...

When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits that RNA before it is translated into protein. Many genes can be processed and ...

Why do some mammals squeeze just a few years out of life while others live several decades? A new cross-species study led by scientists at the University of California, Riverside (UCR), and the ...

A collaborative study by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, and University of Southern California reports on how a process known as alternative splicing, often described as ...

Background: Serum Response Factor (SRF) is an important transcription factor for cardiac muscle gene regulation. Alternative splicing of SRF may modulate different cardiac disease. This study ...

Embryonic development in honeybees is a critical stage that shapes the formation of organs and structures in adult bees. Although there has been substantial progress in transcriptome studies on ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. The present study aimed to investigate the potential ...

While humans can escape the heat by seeking shade or shedding layers, plants remain rooted in place. So how do they survive extreme heat? It’s a question many have wondered—and now, science has an ...
