During translation, tRNA translocation is a key step triggered by the translocase elongation factor G (EF-G), which inserts into the decoding center (DC) and disrupts the interactions between the tRNA ...

Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) deliver specific amino acids to ribosomes during translation of messenger RNA into proteins. The abundance of tRNAs can therefore have a profound impact on cell physiology, but ...

Loss of TRMT10A led to a decrease in the levels of initiator methionine tRNA (tRNA iMet) and a specific glutamine tRNA (tRNA Gln). This reduction weakened the initiation of protein synthesis for ...

A research paper published in the journal Cell Metabolism by the team of Prof. Liu Qiang at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) reveals the critical role of glutamate tRNA ...

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- aTyr Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATYR), a clinical stage biotechnology company engaged ...

There are different kinds of ribonucleic acids that play essential roles in many aspects of molecular biology, including the creation of proteins from gene sequences in DNA. One type of ribonucleic ...

For disorders driven by a known genetic component, research understandably focuses on developing a drug targeting that genetic signature. When that works, the outcome benefits patients but the end ...

The various identities of cells, whether they are in the brain, heart, kidney, or any other tissue, are defined by the genes they expressed. In basic terms, the genes that are active in a cell are ...

A novel tRNA fragment limits UV-driven photoageing by protecting collagen and mRNA stability. Discover the mechanism and its therapeutic potential. Read more.

A groundbreaking study has shed light on the critical role of a tRNA methylation enzyme, TRMT10A, in supporting brain function. The findings reveal how the absence of TRMT10A leads to a reduction in ...
