The Kwanobuhle Initiation Task Team, made up of traditional leaders, health officials, police, religious leaders, and taxi industry players, visited hotspot areas.

Neurodegenerative disorders, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), remain a major unsolved challenge in modern medicine. While their causes can vary and are ...

Abstract: The accurate recognition of translational initiation sites (TISs) in genomic, cDNA and mRNA sequences is crucial to identifying the primary structure of the functional gene products - ...

DNA translation is the term used to describe the process of protein synthesis by ribosomes in the cytoplasm or endoplasmic reticulum. The genetic information in DNA is used as a basis to create ...

The virusoid associated with rice yellow mottle virus encodes its own proteins; is it the exception that proves the rule, or the first of many more to come? It’s axiomatic in reviews of virusoids that ...

Quantitative prediction on protein synthesis requires accurate translation initiation and codon translation rates. Ribosome profiling data, which provide steady-state distribution of relative ribosome ...

Translation initiation (TI) allows accurate selection of the initiation codon on a messenger RNA (mRNA) and defines the reading frame. In all domains of life, translation initiation generally occurs ...

Researchers have solved the the structure of the complex formed when mRNA is being scanned to find the starting point for translating RNA into a protein. The discovery provides a new understanding of ...

Translation is the process that makes a protein based on messenger RNA Researchers now have a 3D structure for the complex that scans mRNA to start making protein Understanding how translation begins ...

Genes must be expressed in precise levels and at the exact moment if the complex balance regulating cell activity is to be maintained. Messenger RNA (mRNA) conveys genetic information from DNA to ...
