Early-stage gene transcription creates access to DNA
Published October 6, 2008, 8:45 am, EurekAlert!
( Boston College ) An international team of researchers, probing how a yeast cell senses its cellular environment and makes decisions about whether or not to express a gene, finds the process of transcribing non-coding RNAs is required for the eventual production of the protein-encoding RNA. The transient synthesis of these non-coding RNAs serves to unfurl the tightly wound DNA, essentially ...
