Researchers have discovered how certain proteins can attach to special structures in RNA, called G-quadruplexes. Additionally, they have developed computational tools capable of predicting these ...
This study illustrates how persistent mRNA rG4 structures induce ribosome pausing and collisions, leading to proteostasis collapse in senescent cells. The RNA helicase DHX9 acts as a key regulator, ...
Not all DNA looks like the familiar double helix. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes under certain conditions. One such structure known as a G-quadruplex (G4) looks like a ...
