An easy method for efficiently identifying proteins that interact with bioactive molecules has been developed by chemical biologists at RIKEN. This innovation, published in ChemBioChem, could help to ...

How does a cell know when it’s been damaged? A molecular alarm, set off by mutated RNA and colliding ribosomes, signals ...

Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine technology, which rose to prominence during the Covid-19 pandemic, is now being repurposed by South African scientists to tackle one of the world’s oldest ...

Yet, the remaining challenge toward optimizing PM-based mRNA delivery systems for systemic application is to build a functionality to prevent RNase invasion into the polyplex core storing cargo mRNA.

Summary: New research reveals how a tiny chemical mark on RNA helps wire the brain during development. Scientists discovered ...

RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a nucleic acid polymer where the carbohydrate is ribose. RNA is generally single-stranded, as DNA is transcribed by RNA polymerases into mRNA (messenger RNA), which is ...
