Forest can adapt to climate change, but not quickly enough
America's forests have a tough time in store for them. Climate change is increasing temperatures and decreasing moisture levels across the country, not a winning combination for trees......»»
Study presents new database linking RNA editing and blood cell differentiation
The process of converting DNA to proteins through an RNA is far from straightforward. Of the several types of RNA involved in the process of protein synthesis, a few may be edited mid-way. In mammals, RNA editing mostly involves converting adenosine.....»»
DNA-repair protein complex is a shapeshifter, reconfiguring itself to meet the demands of each task
Transcription factor IIH, or TFIIH, pronounced "TF two H," is a veritable workhorse among the protein complexes that control human cell activity. It plays critical roles both in transcription—the highly regulated enzymatic synthesis of RNA from a D.....»»
