Under these conditions, RNA has the ability to split without adding a water molecule. The end of the RNA strand remains water ...

RNA is the molecule that reads the genetic information stored in DNA. It's critical for the proper functioning of cells, and in a new study published in Nature Communications, University of ...

Researchers studying gene expression have access to vast amounts of data from cells or tissues. This is thanks to advances in ...

Postdoctoral scholar Daniela Soto has earned a prestigious fellowship from HHMI with eight years of funding to study the ...

This is an RNA molecule generated in the lab that the team first presented in 2023. The researchers from the Institute of Organic Chemistry were able to determine the 3D structure of SAMURI using ...

Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage, but it turns out that this is not the full truth.

RNA is similar to DNA, but whereas DNA is long lived, RNA is a more transient molecule. A type of RNA, known as messenger RNA (mRNA), functions as the intermediate ‘messenger’ that carries ...

Nerve cells have amazing strategies to save energy and still perform the most important of their tasks. Researchers from the ...

tRNAs have a distinct cloverleaf secondary structure and an L-shaped tertiary structure. The cloverleaf structure is formed by the folding of the single-stranded tRNA molecule, which is typically ...

Proteins that trigger cell senescence occupy much of the literature on aging, but a small RNA moves into the limelight. Kamal is a freelance science journalist based in the UK with a PhD in virology ...
