RIKEN researchers have discovered how an enzyme modifies gene expression by targeting certain stretches of messenger RNA ...

The brain's ability to do everything from forming memories to coordinating movement relies on its cells producing the right proteins at the right time. But directly measuring this protein production, ...

In a new study, published in Cell, researchers describe a newfound mechanism for creating proteins in a giant DNA virus, comparable to a mechanism in eukaryotic cells. The finding challenges the dogma ...

A new method lets researchers visualize messenger RNA translation across different brain cell types. In this image, CA3 pyramidal neurons of the mouse hippocampus glow magenta, indicating especially ...
