GIST, Finding Mechanism of Key Enzyme Involving Gene Regulation

 

 

The operation principle of single molecule structure-level of RNA death process enzyme, which was a very difficult problem not solved, is found for the first time in the world. A paper created by the research team, led by Lee Gwang-Rog, professor of School of Life Science of Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), was published in Science, the world"s top science journal, on June 29.
