Genes contain instructions for making proteins, and a central dogma of biology is that this information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. But only two percent of the human genome actually encodes ...
Researchers are embarking on the RNA equivalent of the Human Genome Project, including sequencing all the chemical ...
Terc-53 functions as a molecular scaffold bringing together Hmmr and Trim25, accelerating Hmmr’s ubiquitination-mediated degradation, which consequently leads to neuroinflammation and cognition ...
When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...
With big pharma signalling interest in novel RNA-targeted approaches, the term “druggable” is being redefined as technology ...
A new study in mice hints at the potential to use tiny particles made with RNA molecules to deliver chemotherapy drugs and other therapies directly to tumors, killing cancer cells without generating ...
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 ...
Scientists provide fresh insights on the origins of life, presenting compelling evidence supporting the 'RNA World' hypothesis. The study unveils an RNA enzyme that can make accurate copies of other ...
