Researchers studied the 3D structure of the virus and have reported their finding in the Journal Structure. HIV virus has a wide range of variability due to difference in size and shape which...

Understanding the RNA binding protein and its functions inside the cell

...ractions. RNA (Ribonucleic acid) is the genetic material that is derived from the DNA and programs the cells to make proteins. There are many types of RNA in the cells of mammals, such as transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA rRNA), and messenger RNA (mRNA). They all have their respective functions to carry o...
