Translation is the process by which a protein is synthesized by the ribosome, using a messenger RNA (mRNA) template. The antibiotics kasugamycin, edeine and GE81112, inhibit translation initiation.

This film creatively illustrates the process of protein synthesis through dance, symbolizing the assembly of amino acids into proteins. It explains how genes encode instructions for amino acid ...

A new review article highlights the transformative role of circular RNA (circRNA) in cancer, revealing its potential as both ...

Polyphosphate (polyP) exists in all life forms; however, its biological functions in metazoans are understudied. Here, we explored Drosophila as the first genetic model to explore polyP biology in ...

Ribosome ubiquitination regulates HAC1 mRNA processing during the unfolded protein response. Here, the authors show that the SCFGrr1 complex promotes HAC1 mRNA splicing and translation by ...

This paper presents the important finding that BNIP3/NIX, a mitophagy receptor, and its binding to ATG18 are required for mitophagy during muscle cell reorganization in Drosophila. Although the ...
