In a new study, Chinese researchers have discovered the previously unrecognized role of alternative splicing of the DOC2A gene in schizophrenia. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech ...

Computational biologists have uncovered how RNA splicing -- a crucial process for isoform expression and protein diversity -- is regulated across different cell types in the peripheral blood. This ...

Alternative RNA splicing is like a movie editor cutting and rearranging scenes from the same footage to create different versions of a film. By selecting which scenes to keep and which to leave out, ...

In an important new study, Chinese researchers have discovered the previously unrecognized role of alternative splicing of the DOC2A gene in schizophrenia. The research was conducted by scientists led ...

Researchers led by Davide Incarnato at the University of Groningen have demonstrated that the FDA-approved cancer drug mitoxantrone works against RNA not simply by attaching to it, but by forcing it ...

Cancers driven by hiccups in RNA processing can’t hide from our immune system, according to new work published today in Cell. A cross-institutional team Fred Hutch Cancer Center and Memorial Sloan ...

Alzheimer's Disease (AD), the leading cause of dementia, affects nearly 40 million individuals globally, resulting in a gradual loss of memory and independence. Despite extensive research over the ...

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 ...

Biologists have discovered a new type of RNA-splicing regulation that helps to determine which protein-coding exons will be included in messenger RNA transcripts. RNA splicing is a cellular process ...
