The blueprint for our bodies is contained in our genes, but scientists have long wondered how our environment can in turn exert an effect on our genes. It was first proposed in the early 80s by Mina ...
The results, published in the September 15 online edition of Nature, mark a major advance in the use of microscopes for scientific investigation (microscopy). The findings could lead to treatments for ...
Chromosomes occupy specific regions of a nucleus, called "chromosome territories." These subdomains might be doing much more than just keeping everything organized. Determining how chromosomes are ...
RNA turnover in the nuclei of eukaryotic cells is controlled by the RNA exosome aided by numerous cofactors. Researchers at now show how two major nuclear exosome cofactors recognize their RNA targets ...
The movement of proteins within the nucleus can occur by diffusion, with surprisingly extensive and rapid turnover occurring in high-affinity intranuclear compartments. The transport of the proteins ...
1. Researchers studied 17 animal species and found a strong correlation between more mitochondrial DNA in the nucleus and longer life span for a species. Moving mitochondrial DNA into the nucleus is ...
The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme's ...
Could scientists detect neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and ALS years or decades before these disorders manifest outward signs? What could researchers learn by following hundreds of ...
