The cells in living organisms are constantly making proteins. Ribosomes, the RNA-protein complexes that make other proteins, ...

High-resolution structures of nascent polypeptide chains in complex with the ribosome — the cell’s protein-synthesis machinery — reveal how the ribosome guides protein folding. Ribosomal attachment ...

Within a cell, DNA carries the genetic code for building proteins. To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called mRNA. Then, another molecule called a ribosome reads the mRNA, translating it ...

A previously unknown mechanism that makes it possible for aggressive so-called triple-negative breast cancer to fine-tune its ...
