Ribosomes are the sites in a cell in which protein synthesis takes place. Cells have many ribosomes, and the exact number depends on how active a particular cell is in synthesizing proteins.

The transcription factor regulatory network in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is complex and involves multiple regulators that respond to various environmental signals and physiological cues by regulating ...

"We know there is an interaction between the RNAP, the ribosome, transcription factors, proteins and mRNA," said U-M senior scientist Adrien Chauvier, one of four co-leaders of the study.

This transfer of life's code from DNA to RNA is called transcription. Next, a ribosome uses the message encoded in RNA to build proteins—the molecules performing most of the essential functions ...

rRNA plays a critical role in the assembly and maturation of ribosomes. The process of ribosome biogenesis involves the transcription of rRNA precursors, their processing and modification, and the ...

Moreover, the study identified, for the first time, the fully rotated ribosome bound to the open form of eEF3. The researchers found that eEF3 binds to the ribosome early in translocation ...

This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages - transcription and translation ... now ready to leave the nucleus and travel to the ribosome. After translation, the polypeptide is finally ...

Messenger RNA carries genetic information from DNA in the highly protected nucleus out to the rest of the cell, where structures called ribosomes can build proteins according to the ... where it is ...
