Present paper reports electron impact total ionization cross sections (Qion) for all the components of DNA and RNA molecules from threshold to 2000eV. We have employed spherical complex optical potential (SCOP) formalism to calculate the total inelastic cross sections and have deduced total ...
DNA and RNA are molecules that define an organism. DNA is our genetic code, whereas RNA has multiple functions, including being a messenger of the genetic code, a site of protein synthesis, and a transporter of amino acids.Answer and Explanation: The nucleic acids DNA and RNA are polymers c...
Three basic elements are formed and combined to make a single nucleotide. What are these elements? What are the components of DNA and RNA molecules? What are the components of DNA and RNA? What are the four types of RNA nucleotides?
Small-molecule inhibitors of the NLRP3 inflammasome that are now in clinical trials have demonstrated proof of concept that inflammasomes are druggable, and so drug development programmes are now focusing on other key inflammasome molecules. In this Review, we describe the potential of inflammasome ...
Explore what a nucleosome is, what the nucleosome structure is, what nucleosomes are made of, and why nucleosomes are important for DNA functionality.
Emerging evidence suggests that paraspeckles are formed by the nuclear liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) that is mediated by RNA molecules and RNA-binding proteins with a prion-like LCD, an intrinsically disordered domain29,64,65. It has been reported that aberrant LLPS, caused by mutations...

brucei were analyzed by RNAit (86) to identify specific target nucleotide sequences for RNA interference. The oligonucleotides predicted by RNAit were used to amplify a DNA fragment (supplemental Table S3) for cloning into the p2T7-177 vector (87). A total of 10 μg insert-containing ...
and U5 and is responsible for splicing U12-type introns [13], which makes up about 0.5–1% of all introns in the human genome. Many genes with such introns encode proteins involved in DNA replication and repair, RNA processing and translation, cytoskeletal organization, and vesicular transport ...
of inducers to the production of RNA molecules. For this, we first model transcription in cells accounting for the variability in numbers of the molecules involved in inducers intake and in transcription initiation rate constants, and study how these sources of variability contribute to the RNA ...
