The human sensor of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) oligoadenylate synthetase 1 (hOAS1) polymerizes ATP into 2',5'-linked iso-RNA (2-5A) involved in innate immunity, cell cycle, and differentiation. We ...
Many genes are of unknown functions in any sequenced genome. A combination of chemical and genetic perturbations has been used to investigate gene functions. Here we present a case that such ...
Selenophosphate synthetase 1 (SEPHS1) plays an essential role in the metabolism of selenium and has ATPase activity that synthesizes selenophosphate from ATP and selenide. Researchers have ...
