RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions (IDR), reports a new study from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Using ...

Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco have identified an iron-storing protein called ferritin light ...

Immunologists from the Babraham Institute have been the first to uncover a role for a family of RNA-binding proteins in the function of regulatory T cells in the immune system. As their name suggests, ...

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, portions of the RNA that don't code for proteins, called introns, are cut ...
