The ribosome serves as the essential molecular machine that translates genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA) into functional proteins. Comprised of two distinct subunits, the ribosome ...
The discovery of ribosomes dates back to the 1950s, when George Palade first observed dense particles in the cytoplasm of cells using electron microscopy. These particles were later named "ribosomes" ...
Inside tiny cellular machines called ribosomes, chains of genetic material called messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are matched with the corresponding transfer RNAs (tRNAs) to create sequences of amino acids ...

In the 1940s, scientists at the recently established National Cancer Institute were trying to breed mice that could inform our understanding of cancer, either because they predictably developed ...
Polysome and ribosome preparations from normal rat liver and from a series of transplantable rat hepatomas of different growth rates were compared. All the hepatomas had a significantly higher ...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 117, No. 27 (July 7, 2020), pp. 15609-15619 (11 pages) Ribosome biogenesis is a complex process, and dozens of ...
Scientists report a method for stable attachment of peptides to tRNAs, which has allowed them to gain new fundamental insights into ribosome function by determining the atomic-level structures of ...
