Biological clocks: RNA keeps time
It was suspected for centuries and confirmed by scientific studies decades ago – animals, including human beings, have internal ‘clocks.’ That is, many of our biological processes run on a schedule, and that schedule is maintained by some kind of biological equivalent to a clock. Now, in work that is highly characteristic of ‘the molecular [...]
