In bacterial ribosomes, the small (30S) ribosomal subunit is composed of 16S rRNA and 21 distinct proteins. Ribosomal protein S15 is of particular interest because it binds primarily to 16S rRNA ...

Genetic distance thresholds were generated by the function ‘threshVal’ and “localMinima” from SPIDER package and traditional threshold values (1%, 3%, 6% and 10%) were also evaluated. Coding genes, ...

New study shows RNA polymerase I halts at abasic DNA damage, helping prevent faulty rRNA production and exposing lesions for ...

Genetic information encoded in messenger RNA is translated into protein by the ribosome, which is a large nucleoprotein complex comprising two subunits, denoted 30S and 50S in bacteria. Here we ...

A new study led in part by Mount Sinai researchers has found a compelling link between the composition of the gut microbiome ...

This new review article highlights the critical role of ribosome biogenesis in liver health and disease progression.

The results were clear: participants with less diverse and more imbalanced gut microbiomes were more likely to show signs of ...

Researchers led by Dr. Xu Mingkai from the Institute of Applied Ecology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have identified a highly effective microbial consortium capable of fully degrading acetochlor ...

From gut-health-testing kits to blood pressure monitors, tech innovations are meeting the demand for preventative health for ...

Collagen and chitin shift soil microbial communities and reduce root-knot nematode infections in tomato plants while ...

This new review article highlights the critical role of ribosome biogenesis in liver health and disease progression. As the center of protein ...
