Right open reading frame kinase 2 (RIOK2) plays an essential role in ribosome assembly and cell growth, survival and stress responses. Research has linked RIOK2 to tumor progression and poor prognosis ...

Researchers have developed a new microscopy technique to observe how ribosomes function in cells. With this method, they can monitor individual ribosomes as they convert mRNA into proteins.

Ribosomes getting stuck The team also made an important discovery about ribosome collisions—where one ribosome runs into another due to a tricky RNA segment or differences in speed, for example ...

These spots are socRNAs being translated by ribosomes in a cell. They get brighter over time, showing active translation. The complex, which includes the socRNA and ribosome, is attached to the ...

During translation, ribosomes can pause on the nucleic acid. Researchers showed that collisions from incoming proteins get them moving again. Shelby is an assistant editor for The Scientist. She ...

Despite its predominant cytoplasmic localization, SERBP1 is associated with proteins in specific nuclear complexes implicated in splicing regulation, cell division, and ribosome biogenesis.

Scientists have developed a breakthrough microscopy technique to observe ribosomes in action as they translate mRNA into proteins. This method revealed that ribosomes cooperate when encountering ...
