Discover interesting facts about the origin of the human species and what makes us different from our ape cousins.

There are bells and whistles on the human spliceosome that allow it to process specific introns more efficiently. One of the advantages of a system like this may be that it allows more complex ...

This process is controlled by a large protein-RNA complex called the spliceosome. MIT biologists have now discovered a new layer of regulation that helps to determine which sites on the messenger ...

In human cells, only a small proportion of the information written in genes is used to produce proteins. How does the cell select this information? A large molecular machine called the spliceosome ...

A new process that is essential to the synthesis of cellular proteins has been discovered by an international research team.

Researchers unveil the inner mechanisms of the most intricate and complex molecular machine in human biology. Scientists at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona have developed the ...

After a decade of work, scientists have completed a molecular model of the human spliceosome, an incredibly complex cellular machine. When an active gene is expressed in a cell, it is transcribed into ...

Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona have created the first blueprint of the human spliceosome, the most complex and intricate molecular machine inside every cell. The s ...

The spliceosome edits genetic messages transcribed from DNA, allowing cells to create different versions of a protein from a single gene. The vast majority of human genes – more than nine in ten – are ...

Researchers have created the first blueprint of the human spliceosome, the most complex and intricate molecular machine inside every cell.
