This finding increases methane production, reduces reagent consumption and, consequently, diminishes process costs and minimizes the risk of inhibiting the microorganisms responsible for the…
All living things have a fleet of tiny copy machines that turn instructions from DNA into RNA molecules responsible for helping build proteins that keep organisms alive. One of those nanoscale machines, called eukaryotic RNA polymerase II, performs a crucial early step required by nearly every biological process.
