With a $50 million initial investment from Flagship, Terrana will use RNA from benign plant viruses as a chassis to carry ...

A recent study involving researchers from the University of Basel reveals that slowing down the intracellular transport of ...

Summary: New research reveals how a tiny chemical mark on RNA helps wire the brain during development. Scientists discovered that m6A methylation regulates the production of proteins essential for ...

To overcome the inherent challenge of translation termination interference caused by stop codon reprogramming in mammalian ...

The innate immune system is the body's first line of defense against pathogens and foreign substances. An essential component of this system are pattern recognition receptors, which recognize non-self ...

By uncovering RNA’s previously unknown function to repair DNA damage, our findings show how RNA may directly contribute to the stability and evolution of the genome. It’s not merely a passive ...

RNA folding is the process by which a linear ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule acquires secondary structure through intra-molecular interactions. The folded domains of RNA molecules are often the ...

Based on several lines of interesting data, the authors conclude that FMRP, though associated with stalled ribosomes, does not determine the position on the mRNAs at which ribosomes stall. Although ...

The crystal structure of the universal ribonucleoprotein core of the signal recognition particle suggests that the RNA moiety has been evolutionarily conserved because it plays an important role ...

It follows a previous report showing that the Werner syndrome protein WRN and its interacting protein WRNIP1 are indispensable for translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) by Y-family DNA polymerases (Pols).
