Translation factors eIF1A and eIF5B are key repressors of an abnormal protein translation process linked to neurodegenerative ...

Elongation, a crucial step in the translation process of protein synthesis, gets disrupted by amino acid sequences with an abundance of N-terminal aspartic and glutamic acid residues in eukaryotic ...

Nascent polypeptide chains or polypeptidyl-tRNAs (pep-tRNAs) occur transiently during protein synthesis. The potential to study these intermediates and better understand their role in processes like ...

Transcription and translation are processes a cell uses to make all proteins the body needs to function from information stored in the sequence of bases in DNA. The four bases (C, A, T/U, and G in the ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 113, No. 27 (July 5, 2016), pp. 7545-7550 (6 pages) Regulation of protein synthesis plays a vital role in ...

A team has recreated the harmful RAN translation process triggered by C9orf72 repeat expansions in ALS and FTD. Using a fully ...

Proteins that bind DNA or RNA are usually put in different categories, but researchers at Umea University in Sweden and Inserm in France recently showed how the p53 protein has the capacity to bind ...

These Escherichia coli bacteria tagged with different colors produced different mixtures of proteins. Together, the bacterial consortium makes all the proteins needed for mRNA translation/protein ...

Control of gene expression in Euglena was examined during light-induced chloroplast development. Greening was achieved under standard conditions which allowed the synthesis of all plastid proteins in ...
