RNA, Messenger - Biosynthesis
Research News and Information

Definition of 'RNA, Messenger'

RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.

PARP1 expression in pediatric central nervous system tumors.

13 Dec 2009 BACKGROUND: Despite advances in therapy, outcome in many high-grade pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors remains poor. The focus of neuro-oncology research has thus turned towards identifying novel therapeutic targets. Poly(ADP-ribose) ... Read more...


Decreased brain edema after collagenase-induced intracerebral hemorrhage in mice lacking the inducible nitric oxide synthase gene. Laboratory investigation.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECT: Hematoma size and brain edema after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are important prognostic factors. Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is induced after cerebral ischemia and is known to be involved in secondary neuronal injury, but its ... Read more...


Androgen receptor as a potential sign of prostate cancer metastasis.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Androgen receptor (AR) expression and its modulation through the carcinogenesis process have been investigated in several studies with conflicting results. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In situ hybridization and immunocytochemistry were used to ... Read more...
