Now, researchers used cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) to elucidate the structure of the Nipah virus polymerase complex ... for both transcription and RNA replication and mutations that have ...

DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel motion by enzymatic RNA degradation. Essentially, chemical energy is ...

The work provides a detailed three-dimensional picture of the virus's polymerase and its key features. Understanding the structure and behavior of this critical piece of the viral machinery ...

Another important discovery was an intricate RNA structure near the critical "frameshift site" in the viral genome. This frameshift site is essential for the virus to produce the correct ...

Researchers have now uncovered the 3D structure of the RNA enzyme SAMURI. Their study provides insights into the development of ribozymes and the evolution of catalytically active RNA. Researchers ...

The findings have left scientists questioning everything they knew about Earth's structure (Getty Stock Image) As humans cannot physically visit the area in question to conduct further investigations, ...

The team believes that the structure was in use until the 8th century BCE, the middle of the period when the Kings of Judah ruled. A scarab seal from the 8th century BCE uncovered during the ...

Enzymes made of RNA are called "ribozymes." A group of researchers led by Professor Claudia Höbartner at the University of Würburg (JMU) has now uncovered the three-dimensional structure of a ...

Earth's inner core may actually have two distinct layers. (alexlmx/Canva Pro) "We found evidence that may indicate a change in the structure of iron, which suggests perhaps two separate cooling events ...
