A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing is a ...

UMD researchers have discovered key mechanisms in gene regulation that could improve the design of RNA-based medicines.

Scientists from Flinders University in Australia have made a surprising discovery about a recently identified type of genetic material called circular RNAs. Their research suggests that these ...

Postdoctoral scholar Daniela Soto has earned a prestigious fellowship from HHMI with eight years of funding to study the ...

While some of the initial zeal around localized vaccine production in Africa has waned since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, efforts to bolster the continent’s immunization autonomy—especially | ...

A new case report was published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on February 5, 2025, titled “Acquired RUFY1-RET rearrangement as a ...

By treating DNA as a language, Brian Hie’s “ChatGPT for genomes” could pick up patterns that humans can’t see, accelerating ...

1958年，弗朗西斯・克里克提出了中心法则，提出遗传信息从 DNA 转录为 RNA，再经翻译指导蛋白质合成，随后蛋白质参与生命活动这一流程，看似一气呵成，实则存在问题。 若仔细观察，便会发觉此流程不够简洁，RNA 的存在略显累赘。毕竟，越简单的系统往往越高效、越易实现，繁琐的系统则耗能多且不易形成。 从结构看，RNA 与 DNA ...

We live in a golden age for space exploration. Scientists are gathering massive amounts of new information and scientific evidence at a record pace. Yet the age-old question remains unanswered: are w ...

TriLink BioTechnologies, a Maravai LifeSciences (MRVI) company and global provider of life science reagents and services, has signed a ...

A study reveals DNA and RNA epigenetics work together as a complementary system for precise gene regulation, crucial for cell ...
