Biologists mapping the human microbiome expected to find new bacteria and viruses, not entities that slip through every ...
Biologists mapping the human body have long assumed that every major kind of microscopic life inside us already had a place on the tree of life. The discovery of strange RNA-based entities called ...
Researchers identify a shared RNA-protein interaction that could lead to broad-spectrum antiviral treatments for enteroviruses ...
The new findings strengthen the "RNA world" hypothesis that describes how the first life on Earth could have used RNA instead ...
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common adult-onset form of ...
A new research paper featured as the cover of Volume 17, Issue 12 of Aging-US was published on December 22, 2025, titled “A ...
Our results demonstrate that differential connectivity analysis reveals significant transcriptional alterations that are not ...
Apart from carrying the information to encode proteins in, RNA molecules can adopt intricate 2D and 3D structures. Specifically, the same RNA molecule can switch between ON and OFF structures, ...
A surprising amount of the DNA sequence in the genes of humans and other higher organisms ends up on the cutting-room floor, so to speak, spliced out by the cellular machinery that turns genetic code ...
