The Cech Lab specializes in functional RNAs, from the Nobel Prize-winning discovery of catalytic RNAs (ribozymes) to dissecting the RNA-protein complex telomerase that creates and maintains the protective ends of chromosomes to recent work on exploring the vast new territory of long noncoding RNAs to ascribe molecular function to these gene products. Their work gives important insights into cancer, aging, and fundamentals of life.
