Although there are striking differences between the cells that make up your eyes, kidneys, brain and toes, the DNA blueprint ...
Life on Earth may have started with a molecule that still runs our cells today. As researchers probe ribonucleic acid in the ...
RNA can act as an intermediary between the genome and the cell; active genes are transcribed into messenger RNA molecules, for example. While RNA can perform a variety of crucial functions, it is also ...
(Nanowerk News) Some Covid-19 vaccines safely and effectively used lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to deliver messenger RNA to cells. A new MIT study shows that different nanoparticles could be used for a ...
RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful tool in diagnosing Mendelian disorders, but the optimized sequencing depth for this technology has not yet been determined. In a new study published in the ...
A new, 3D-printed, lab-on-chip system combines eRapid and SHERLOCK technologies into a single, postcard-sized system that can simultaneously detect the presence of both SARS-CoV-2 RNA and antibodies ...
In a recent study, researchers at the Texas A&M University Health Science Center (Texas A&M Health) identify a novel RNA ...
RNA, or ribonucleic acid, is a short-lived molecule copied from DNA that enables cells to use genetic information. Specific ...
QIMR Berghofer scientists have discovered a cancer-fighting RNA molecule that could hold the key to a new way of treating the ...
CRISPR-Cas9 has transformed our ability to study DNA by manipulating genomic information in a programmable fashion. The RNA-targeting CRISPR effector protein Cas13 is poised to revolutionize the study ...
In mice and human cell cultures, researchers showed that novel nanoparticles can deliver a potential therapy for inflammation in the brain, a prominent symptom in Alzheimer's disease. In mice and ...
