Every living cell must interpret its genetic code—a sequence of chemical letters that governs countless cellular functions. A ...

Researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Israel Institute for Biological Research in Ness Ziona have used the platform ...

To build proteins, cells rely on a molecule called transfer RNA, or tRNA. tRNAs act like protein-building couriers, where ...

No longer a mere assistant who carries out the commands of DNA, RNA takes the lead in emerging therapeutics.

Professor Hirohide Saito and his research team have developed a new microRNA-responsive hybrid mRNA switch, enabling precise, ...

The elephant vaccine closely resembles other mRNA vaccines made for humans. mRNA packed in lipid nanoparticles carries ...

Advances in de novo synthesis of DNA and computational gene design methods make possible the customization of genes by direct manipulation of features such as codon bias and mRNA secondary structure.

To estimate the readthrough efficiency of the AGO1 stop codon, these authors used a dual-luciferase reporter system in which AGO1-F-luc and R-luc were translated from separate mRNAs. AGO1-F-luc ...

The best sequence has an affinity of approximately 1.7 nM and seven of the isolated binders can inhibit the virus replication from 11- to 5900-fold.
