The dystrophin gene, which is mutated in Duchenne muscular dystrophy, is the largest human gene. A full spectrum of the gene transcripts has not been fully elucidated yet, although two cryptic exons ...
During RNA maturation, the group I intron promotes two sequential phosphorotransfer reactions resulting in exon ligation and intron release. Here, we report the crystal structure of the intron in ...
The synaptic vesicular monoamine transporter (SVMT), alternatively vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2), pumps cytosolic monoamines including dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and histamine ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract RNA is commonly believed to undergo a number of sequential folding steps before reaching its functional fold, i.e., the global minimum in the ...
One of the most long-standing, fundamental mysteries of biology surrounds the poorly understood origins of introns. Introns are segments of noncoding DNA that must be removed from the genetic code ...
What if you could flip a genetic switch to silence a gene, then turn it back on with a simple drug? For researchers, gene-switch tools offer that kind of control—and a new system called Cyclone may ...
Gram-negative bacterial infections are becoming an increasingly serious global health issue U.S. patent applications filed for three novel drug candidates: PKL200, TSL2200, and EAL2200 Continued ...
