RNA is the intermediary that carries the information contained within DNA to the ribosomes, where the genetic information is synthesized into proteins. There are a variety of different types of RNA ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have discovered a novel mechanism that recognizes and eliminates "bad" transcriptional ...

RNA polymerase is an enzyme that is responsible for copying a DNA sequence into an RNA sequence, duyring the process of transcription. As complex molecule composed of protein subunits, RNA ...

Once transcription is initiated, the DNA double helix unwinds and RNA polymerase reads the template strand, adding nucleotides to the 3′ end of the growing chain (Figure 2b). At a temperature of ...

During transcription, newly minted RNA sticks to its DNA template, forming a 3-stranded structure known as an R-loop. While ...

The cell creates mRNA, a copy of DNA, to assemble proteins ... of ribosomes to mRNA during its transcription by the enzyme RNA polymerase, or RNAP. Their study, which looked at the mechanism ...

DNA polymerase enzymes facilitate this process, ensuring accurate copying of the genetic information. Transcription is the process by which the genetic information in DNA is copied into a ...

This unwinding of the helix is caused by an enzyme (helicase enzyme). The enzyme RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA in a non-coding region just before the gene. RNA polymerase moves along the DNA ...

Researchers at Rockefeller University have discovered a new mechanism for maintaining genome stability in bacteria. This ...

A global team has made a significant advance in understanding how bacterial plasmids contribute to antibiotic resistance.

STONY BROOK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / / Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:APDN) ("Applied DNA" or the "Company"), a leader in PCR-based DNA technologies, today announced the completion of the buildout of ...
