RNA FOLDING AND FUNCTIONS OF RNA HELICASES IN RIBOSOME BIOGENESIS

RNA folding and functions of RNA helicases in ribosome biogenesis

Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis involves the synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and its stepwise folding into the unique structure present in mature ribosomes.rRNA folding starts already co-transcriptionally in the nucleolus and continues when pre-ribosomal particles further maturate in the nucleolus and upon their transit to the nucleoplasm and cyto

Learning and the diffusion of regime contention in the Arab Spring

The Arab Spring has become a prominent example of the spread of cross-national regime contention.It is widely accepted that successful regime contention (in Tunisia and Egypt) triggered protests in other countries.Both scholars and other observers have suggested that protesters learned from successful regime contention.Thus far, available evidence

Gene expression profiles of inflammatory breast cancer reveal high heterogeneity across the epithelial-hybrid-mesenchymal spectrum

Tops Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a highly aggressive breast cancer that metastasizes largely via tumor emboli, and has a 5-year survival rate of less than 30%.No unique genomic signature has yet been identified for IBC nor has any specific molecular therapeutic been developed to manage the disease.Thus, identifying gene expression signature

Vaccination status and self-reported side effects after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in relation to psychological and clinical variables in patients with multiple sclerosis

Abstract The recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and the vaccination campaign posed a challenge to patients with autoimmune disease, such as multiple sclerosis (MS).We aimed for investigating whether psychological/sociodemographic/clinical characteristics of MS patients are associated with SARS-CoV-2 vaccination status and self-reported vaccination side eff
