Scientists at IOCB Prague are uncovering new details of gene transcription. They have identified a previously unknown ...

DNA can be regarded as an extensive library that contains all genetic information. Cells do not utilize this information simultaneously.

The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme's "tail" called phosphorylation patterns. Scientists at St. Jude Children's ...

Enzymes called RNA polymerases transcribe DNA into RNA. RNA is the intermediary that carries the information contained within DNA to the ribosomes, where the genetic information is synthesized into ...

(MEMPHIS, Tenn. – November 6, 2025) The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme’s “tail” called phosphorylation patterns.

What the research is about DNA can be thought of as a vast library that stores all genetic information. Cells do not ...

Rpb1, the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), is rapidly polyubiquitinated and degraded in response to DNA damage; this process is considered to be a “mechanism of last resort” employed by ...

For all its mysteries, cancer can be boiled down to a disease caused by cell division gone haywire. But what determines the rate at which cancer cells can grow? They need cell building materials—amino ...

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TriLink BioTechnologies and Alphazyme, both part of Maravai LifeSciences, have collaborated to launch CleanScribe™ RNA Polymerase, a novel enzyme that reduces ...
