These RNA elements function by binding to either ... which have at least six different functional long-distance interactions, all of which span distances of 1 kb or more (Table 1).

“With the RNA design problem partially solved, the road is now open to creating functional RNA nanostructures that can be used for RNA-based medicine, or act as RNA regulatory elements to reprogram ...

The paper, "An Interpretable RNA Foundation Model for Exploration Functional RNA Motifs in Plants," appears in Nature Machine Intelligence. The model, say its creators, is a smart technological ...

In graduate school, for example, Vissers showed how chemical tags are added and removed from RNA molecules during brain development. If these tags don’t follow the correct pattern, the brain isn’t ...

The central dogma or the directional flow of genetic information from a deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA) template to a ribose nucleic acid (RNA) transcript, and finally into a functional protein ...

Another gene definition may decrease the number of noncoding RNA included in the human gene count; a gene can be considered any section of the genome that produces a functional RNA or that is ...
