The human genome contains around 20,000 genes that hold instructions for making working proteins, as most genetic databases ...

Improved analysis adds several microproteins to the human proteome, and suggests a path toward identifying thousands more ...

A study finds tRNA genes are mutation hotspots that alter protein synthesis, leading to proteome instability, contributing to aging, cancer, and neurodegenerative disease.

A study by IRB Barcelona reveals that transfer RNA (tRNA) genes accumulate mutations at a frequency up to nine times higher than average.    These mutations specifically target the region that "reads" ...

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 ...

Study lead Associate Professor Elisa De Franco, of the University of Exeter Medical School, said, "For the first time, we found that DNA changes in non-protein coding genes cause neonatal diabetes.

Perhaps you’ve read in a biology textbook that humans have the same number of genes as C. elegans, a worm used in scientific research. Perhaps you’d also like to believe that humans are more complex ...
