Premature termination of transcription influences ribosomal RNA output and RNA polymerase I drug sensitivity, revealing a mechanism of resistance to transcription-targeting chemotherapy.

Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.

Ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories, consume large amounts of energy as they build the proteins that keep cells ...

Ribosomal subunit assembly and biogenesis constitute a fundamental process vital for cellular protein synthesis across all domains of life. This complex, multi-step pathway involves the transcription ...
