A New Level Of Variation In Messenger RNAs Exposed

Like musicians in an orchestra who have the same musical score but start and finish playing at different intervals, cells with the same genes start and finish transcribing them at different points in the genome. For the first time, researchers at EMBL have described the striking diversity of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that such start and end variation produces, even from the simple genome of yeast cells. Their findings, published In Nature, shed new light on the importance of mRNA boundaries in determining the functional potential of genes... via Health News from Medical News Today Read More Here..
