Oxford Nanopore at tRNA 2024

Overview

The 29th tRNA conference will be in the beautiful and historical city, Kanazawa, Japan this year. tRNA has been recognized as a central molecule in protein synthesis. There still remain many unsolved questions in this attractive molecule, not only in biogenesis, processing, modifications, and functions in translation, but also as a signaling molecule and a regulatory factor for gene expression. Physiological impact of this molecule has been demonstrated by human diseases caused by tRNA dysfunction. In addition, tRNA is now recognized as a novel modality for future therapy. tRNA is still an attractive molecule to study.
