A ribosome is a complex macromolecular structure in the cell which is involved in the process of translation. This is an essential function of all living cells, allowing for the production of ...

Scientists at UCL have discovered a novel role played by ribosomes during the folding of new proteins in cells, described in their paper in Nature. Ribosomes, the cell's dedicated molecular ...

carry out a vast array of functions, from digestion to the creation of antibodies. Cells require ribosomes to live. Jewett likens a ribosome to a chef. The ribosome takes the recipe, encoded in ...

Researchers from the Tanenbaum group at the Hubrecht Institute have developed a new microscopy technique to observe how ribosomes function in cells. With this method, they can monitor individual ...

The table below list organelles, their function and the types of cell that they can be found in. Can you fill in the blanks to complete the table? Cell structure Description Function Cell type ...

In the study, Walsh and his collaborators analyzed infected cells using RNA sequencing ... get into the nuance of how poxviruses modify ribosome function and the complexity of host and viral ...

Ribosomes are the protein factories of our body’s cells. Our immune system is constantly monitoring our body. In order to survive, cancer cells need to evade this inspection. “Making cells ...

Researchers at The Netherlands Cancer Institute found that cancer cells can modify their ribosomes to enhance their ability to hide from the immune system. By increasing ribosomes with a flexible arm, ...
