UC Irvine researchers conducted a study to better understand the molecular basis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative disorder in which patients lose the ability to move ...

"We discovered that another aspect of RNA processing, known as polyadenylation, is also altered in ALS due to TDP-43 loss of function in the nucleus," says Eric Arnold, Ph.D., ...

The mRNA metabolism passively shapes the levels of an mRNA modification called m6A within a steady-state cell and upon stress.

Based on several lines of interesting data, the authors conclude that FMRP, though associated with stalled ribosomes, does not determine the position on the mRNAs at which ribosomes stall. Although ...

Imagine that you want to know the plot of a movie, but you only have access to either the visuals or the sound. With visuals ...

An engineered enzyme is at the center of a new method to visualize molecular details in human cells, and how these molecules ...
