Remodelling of RNA structures by proteins such as the DEAD-box (DDX) RNA helicases regulates gene expression at various stages. The budding yeast helicase Dhh1 and its human counterpart DDX6 are known ...

Scientists have found a group of human sequences--unrelated to those in mice--which are capable of producing SINEUPs, which can pair with typical protein-coding mRNAs and enhance their translation.
