Cells in our bodies produce RNA based on genetic information stored in DNA, and RNA serves as a blueprint for making proteins ...

With AI, it's now possible for researchers to predict the three-dimensional structures of proteins directly from their ...

A team at UT Southwestern Medical Center has identified a structural trick that lets viruses translate their genetic code inside human cells, even when that code is riddled with “bad” codons the host ...

New research identifies a critical RNA recycling system that prevents cellular "clogging," offering a new path for anti-aging therapies.

A study finds that removing accumulated circular RNA slows aging and extends lifespan, with an enzyme preventing toxic RNA buildup, and supporting healthy cellular function across organisms.

The technology, called the Viral-Engineered RNA-based Activation System (VERAS), hijacks the virus’s own replication machinery to switch on reporter or therapeutic genes precisely in infected cells.

An innovative three-color method for capturing images of mRNA inside live mammalian cells has been developed by UMass Amherst chemists. Because RNA is both incredibly important to human life and ...

ORNL scientists created a biosensor technology that lets researchers visualize and track RNA activity in living plants, using a molecular splicing technique and a fluorescent marker protein. *This ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai say they have made a new discovery about how human cells make RNA, a molecule that functions as a set of blueprints that tell cells how to ...

A metabolic enzyme also binds and unwinds RNA to promote translation of cell cycle genes. This dual role links energy status ...

A metabolic enzyme studied for over seven decades has a hidden second function—it can unwind RNA and promote cell cycle progression, an additional function beyond its role in energy production, ...
