The production of lariat RNAs is a key step in the biologically important process of splicing. Now, chemistry professor Scott K. Silverman and graduate student Yangming Wang at the University of ...

What's the difference between mRNA and pre-mRNA? It's all about splicing of introns. See how one RNA sequence can exist in nearly 40,000 different forms.

University of California (UC), San Diego, biochemists studying the evolutionary origins and history of RNA splicing and the human genome combined two-dimensional (2D) images of individual molecules to ...

Although you may not appreciate them, or have even heard of them, throughout your body, countless microscopic machines called spliceosomes are hard at work. As you sit and read, they are faithfully ...

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- The production of lariat RNAs is a key step in the biologically important process of splicing. Because splicing changes the protein that is made from a given gene, a fundamental ...
