New research shows that we regularly transfer traces of our genital microbiomes to sexual partners—a discovery that could ...

Earlier studies of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequences have concluded that the oldest ... France, report a re-analysis of bacterial phylogeny that challenges this dogma (Nature 2002, 417:244). It is widely ...

Our structure illustrates how GTPBP10 aids the folding of the ribosomal RNA during the biogenesis process, how this process ...

Wikimedia Commons Ribosomal DNA (rDNA) codes for the RNA that makes up a major component of ribosomes, the site of protein synthesis. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) comprises 80% of the RNA found in a typical ...

whereas bacteria have only one. In eukaryotes, RNA pol I transcribes the genes that encode most of the ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and RNA pol III transcribes the genes for one small rRNA, plus the ...

For instance, bacteria contain a single type of RNA ... RNA pol I transcribes ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), RNA pol II transcribes RNAs that will become messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and also small regulatory ...

The rRNA structures also provide binding sites for ribosomal proteins, which help stabilize the overall ... This discovery led to the concept of the ribosome as a ribozyme, an RNA molecule with ...

"They then assemble in a coordinated fashion on the appropriate ribosomal RNA moiety to form mitoribosomes in the organelle with the help of special factors." Like ribosomes in bacteria or the ...

This image highlights two alternatives for the ribosome to be recruited to an mRNA that is still being synthesized by RNA ... dominant in bacteria, RNAP (green) can interact with ribosomal protein ...

Ribosomal translation is the process by which cells synthesize proteins based on the genetic instructions encoded in messenger RNA. It is essential for life, yet it is an incredibly complex ...
