Introduction

RNA-protein interactions regulate essential biological processes like mRNA stability, splicing, translation, and transport. These interactions are crucial for understanding cellular responses, differentiation, and homeostasis. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are central to these processes, making their study essential for understanding post-transcriptional regulation.…

Profacgen is well-regarded for its custom protein production and bioinformatics solutions that help researchers and industries push the boundaries of science with advanced tools. They’ve come out with some Animal-Free Expression Systems that swap animal-derived materials for plant and microalgae platforms. These new systems give scientists safe, dependable, and scalable ways to produce recombinant…

Profacgen, a biotechnology company that provides custom protein services in the biological sciences, recently enhanced its structure-based virtual screening service for scientists in the field of drug discovery and lead optimization.

In structure-based virtual screening (SBVS), potential compounds are computationally docked into the 3D structure of the biological target…

Recently, the innovation team of the Yellow Sea Fisheries Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Aquatic Sciences drew the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network during its sex determination and differentiation period using the half-slippery tongue sole as a research model, found a dual ceRNA molecular path, and analyzed the epigenetic mechanism of ceRNA regulation of fish sex determination and differentiation. This study is the first to demonstrate the mechanism of ceRNA…
