The phosphorylation of proteins in eukaryotic cells is a key post-translational modification that regulates essential and diverse biological phenomena. Phosphorylation is installed by protein kinases ...

A molecule called tRNA, or transfer ribonucleic acid, is an essential component of the human genome that acts as a translator. It reads the genetic code and translates it into proteins - one of the ...

The genome contains many different kinds of sequences; some genetic sequences are regulatory, some have no apparent function, and others are coding regions that are used to generate proteins. To do so ...

A molecule called tRNA is an essential component of the human genome that acts as a translator. When researchers and clinicians investigate the genome's relation to disease, they have traditionally ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The first committed step of porphyrin synthesis in higher plants is the reduction of glutamyl-tRNA to glutamate 1-semialdehyde. This reaction ...

Documenting the first substantial thing I did in my own lab at CU, discovery of the ability of Aminoacyl RNA Synthetases (AARS) to correct aminoacylation mistakes (simultaneous with Eldred & Schimmel, ...

Neurodegenerative diseases are commonly adult-onset conditions characterized by degeneration of specific neuronal populations. Familial forms are caused by mutations in single genes, but most patients ...

The sequence of a nucleotide region of f1 bacteriophage was determined on a bonded ultrathin acrylamide gel with a discontinuous buffer system by using the dideoxy-DNA sequencing method. This sequence ...

Scientists say that the availability of a trace nutrient can cause genome-wide changes to how organisms encode proteins.The use of queuine, which is produced by bacteria and absorbed in the gut, ...
