The functions of the individual complexes have been well understood for many years. Ribosomes, often referred to as the cell’s protein factories, translate messenger RNA (mRNA) into a specific ...

With the possibility of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. being involved in health policy in the next administration, vaccination – especially mRNA vaccines – will become a hot topic. Is there anything to fear ...

The mRNA vaccines work by giving your cells instructions on how to make a spike protein. This is a protein found on the outside of the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

A team of researchers has uncovered a key cellular mechanism that affects the function of mRNA vaccines and therapeutics. Their study provides the first comprehensive understanding of how mRNA ...

TRIM25 binds to and induces the rapid degradation of exogenous mRNAs, preventing their function. So how do the mRNA vaccines evade this cellular defense?
