• CPEB4 allows these immune cells to adapt to the chronic stress caused by the massive secretion of cytokines, which are essential for them to adopt their effector function and kill cancer cells. • ...

Programmed responses to external stimuli and stress allow cells to adapt to changing environmental conditions, and are critical for cellular survival. mRNA transcription by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) ...

First automated tool that quickly analyses RNA changes across thousands of biological samples Scientists can now better understand how cells adapt to stress, infections or diseases by studying tiny ...

Researchers have developed a powerful tool capable of scanning thousands of biological samples to detect transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) modifications—tiny chemical changes to RNA molecules that help ...

Scientists at Yale Cancer Center have discovered new consequences of specific gene mutations that play a role in the development of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

The heat shock response of cells is a classic model of biological adaptation, part of the fundamental processes of life -- conserved in creatures from single-celled yeast to humans -- that allow our ...

The body’s cells respond to stress—toxins, mutations, starvation or other assaults—by pausing normal functions to focus on conserving energy, repairing damaged components and boosting defenses. If the ...

Plant structural biology sits at the leading edge of research on how plants adapt to abiotic and biotic stresses, ...
