AI can help protein engineers optimize the transcription enzymes used to make mRNA-based vaccines and therapeutics, say the authors of a new study.
Researchers have developed RNA therapeutics, called micelles, that can delivery chemotherapeutic drugs to metastasized tumors in mouse models.
The research led by oral biology professor Keith Kirkwood reveal that enhancing tristetraprolin can reduce frailty in mice.
For decades, Parkinson’s disease has been diagnosed only after tremors, stiffness and slowed movement are already disrupting ...
T o make good decisions on any question the public needs to be well-informed, something not so easily accomplished in America’s schools. That is a key point made by Michael Kent, a recently retired ...
New treatments based on biological molecules like RNA give scientists unprecedented control over how cells function. But ...
Benitec Biopharma Inc. reports 100% responder rates for BB-301 with a mid-2026 FDA meeting ahead. See why BNTC stock is upgraded to buy.
Reducing RAD23A levels helped nerve cells better handle toxic TDP-43 protein clumps, improving survival and function in an ALS mouse model.
A single enzyme that can generate all four nucleotide triphosphates, the building blocks of ribonucleic acid (RNA), was identified by researchers at the Institute of Science Tokyo.
All starting from the same DNA, neurons ultimately take on individual characteristics in the brain and body. Differences in which genes they transcribe into RNA help determine which type of neuron ...
When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits that RNA before it is translated into protein. Many genes can be processed and ...
Version of Record: This is the final version of the article. The importance of RNA editing in producing protein diversity is a widespread process that can regulate how genes function in various ...
