The isolation of plasmids containing DNA complementary to messenger RNA for variant surface glycoproteins of Trypanosoma brucei. [PDF]
We have isolated poly(A)+ RNA from four antigenic variants (117, 118, 121, 221) of one clone of Trypanosoma brucei. Translation of these poly(A)+ RNAs in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate gave rise to proteins that could be precipitated with antisera against ...

Rapid nuclear deadenylation of mammalian messenger RNA
Summary: Poly(A) tails protect RNAs from degradation and their deadenylation rates determine RNA stability. Although poly(A) tails are generated in the nucleus, deadenylation of tails has mostly been investigated within the cytoplasm.

Modelling ribosome kinetics and translational control on dynamic mRNA.
The control of protein synthesis and the overall levels of various proteins in the cell is critical for achieving homoeostasis. Regulation of protein levels can occur at the transcriptional level, where the total number of messenger RNAs in the overall ...

The messenger: the structure of RNA [PDF]
In the early part of the 20th Century, the nature of nucleic acid and what its role was within the cell were a bit of a mystery. DNA itself was first isolated as far back as 1869 by the Swiss chemist Johann Friedrich Miescher. He separated nuclei from the cytoplasm of cells and then isolated an acidic substance from these nuclei that he called nuclein1.

The importance of circulating tumor products as „liquid biopsies” in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Liquid biopsies represent an array of plasma analysis tests that are studied to evaluate and identify circulating tumor products, especially circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).

Interacting RNA polymerase motors on DNA track: effects of traffic congestion and intrinsic noise on RNA synthesis [PDF]
RNA polymerase (RNAP) is an enzyme that synthesizes a messenger RNA (mRNA) strand which is complementary to a single-stranded DNA template. From the perspective of physicists, an RNAP is a molecular motor that utilizes chemical energy input to move along the track formed by a DNA. In many circumstances, which are described in this paper, a large number

Splicing of Messenger RNA Precursors
A general mechanism for the splicing of nuclear messenger RNA precursors in eukaryotic cells has been widely accepted. This mechanism, which generates lariat RNAs possessing a branch site, seems related to the RNA-catalyzed reactions of self-splicing introns.
