Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are increasingly being applied in the field of RNA biology. These methods are used to predict RNA structures, interactions with proteins and small ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common adult-onset form of ...

Ribonucleic acid, commonly known as RNA, is involved in many biological functions, and some, including gene silencing, are utilitized to cure diseases. RNA has recently gained attention as a promising ...

Studying a trio of non-coding RNA molecules produced abundantly in bacterial cells, a SLAC/Stanford-led research team discovered extravagant, multistrand complexes made entirely of RNA—structures they ...

The technology, called the Viral-Engineered RNA-based Activation System (VERAS), hijacks the virus's own replication ...

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is one of life's most versatile molecules, with roles going far beyond being a messenger of genetic code, as it is fundamentally involved in gene regulation, processing, and ...

Apart from carrying the information to encode proteins in, RNA molecules can adopt intricate 2D and 3D structures. Specifically, the same RNA molecule can switch between ON and OFF structures, ...

Advancing RNA therapeutics depends on understanding two critical questions: Where do drug candidates go, and what do they do ...

When scientists sliced into a block of Siberian permafrost and pulled out a woolly mammoth nicknamed Yuka, they expected to ...
