Researchers from the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL) and the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) have studied variations in mRNA length during the progression of ...

RNA splicing is crucial for gene expression. After DNA is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA), noncoding parts called introns are removed, and the coding parts are spliced together.

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, ...
