tRNAs have a distinct cloverleaf secondary structure and an L-shaped tertiary structure. The cloverleaf structure is formed by the folding of the single-stranded tRNA molecule, which is typically ...

Transfer RNA (tRNA) plays a central role in translation. The simultaneous in vitro synthesis of minimal yet sufficient tRNA species (at least 21) poses a challenge for constructing a self-reproducible ...

The Human Genome Project (HGP) ultimately revealed a DNA sequence of 3 billion base pairs known as the human genome, 1 spurring an enormous technological advance in scientific research and the ...

An international research team led by the University of Vienna has succeeded in developing a new version of RNA building blocks with higher chemical reactivity and photosensitivity. This can ...

Many positive strand RNA viruses encode helicases, but their distinct functions in viral replication cycles is poorly understood. Here, we identify a mutation in the helicase domain of HCV ...
