they also work to inhibit gene expression. Specifically, one strand of a double-stranded siRNA molecule can be incorporated into a complex called RISC. This RNA-containing complex can then inhibit ...

A vast search of natural diversity has led scientists at MIT's McGovern Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard ...

Ribonucleic acid, commonly known as RNA, is involved in many biological functions, and some, including gene silencing, are utilized to cure diseases. RNA has recently gained attention as a promising ...

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, ...

RNA-based therapeutics have rapidly emerged over the past decade, offering a new class of medicines that differ significantly from conventional drugs. These therapies can be programmed to target or ...

Researchers at Purdue University have developed NuFold, a machine learning tool that predicts 3D RNA structures from ...

By discovering that plant leaves are coated with RNA, this work shows that the microbes that colonize the surfaces of leaves are exposed to plant RNA and likely interact with this RNA. In turn ...

EnPlusOne uses what it calls a “universal enzyme,” one enzyme that can make multiple modifications, which Ahlstedt says is ...

Fire and Mello (2006), and Karikó and Weissman (2023) have also had their work on RNA recognized. Famed Austrian neurologist and founder of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was nominated ...

isn’t getting in the way or mucking up what the what the RNA does? ANDREJ LUPTÁK: The key aspect of our work was to design and then optimize a tiny, tiny, tiny RNA that is a module. And we spent a ...
