The researchers then used cryo-EM to visualize the 3D structure of the RNA polymerase in this active, RNA-bound state at molecular resolution. "This is an important milestone because until now it ...

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...

Finally, using cryo-electron microscopy, they captured the 3D structure of the RNA polymerase in its active, RNA-bound state at molecular resolution. This research marks a major step toward ...

Dr Kerstin Göpfrich at the Center for Molecular ... Using the new RNA origami technique, they succeeded in producing nanotubes that fold into cytoskeleton-like structures. The cytoskeleton ...

Single-Molecule Footprinting reveals that RNA polymerase II (Pol II) occupancy is infrequent at mouse promoters. This results ...

Bioluminescent luciferase enzymes have historically been too dim to use as probes in living tissue. But recent advances have ...

Scientists at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center and the University of Toronto have revealed how a tiny ...

Before a prostate biopsy is performed, various preliminary screening procedures are typically conducted. These include a ...
