Heidelberg biochemists and structural biologists from Shanghai unravel the roles of two key regulatory factors in mRNA ...

Two molecular control factors play a decisive role in what is known as splicing, the cutting and assembly of mature messenger ...

They succeeded once they were able to isolate the splicing complexes of the fungus that were in the midst of quality control ...

Exons are coding sections of an RNA transcript, or the DNA encoding it, that are translated into protein. Exons can be separated by intervening sections of DNA that do not code for proteins, known ...

In some genes, not all of the DNA sequence is used to make protein. Introns are noncoding sections of an RNA transcript, or the DNA encoding it, that are spliced out before the RNA molecule is ...
