Researchers identify a shared RNA-protein interaction that could lead to broad-spectrum antiviral treatments for ...

RNA in cells performs an astounding number of functions. Messenger RNA carries the sequences of active genes to cellular machinery that turns it into proteins. And transfer RNA molecules are an ...

It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...

Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...

Swedish scientists recover RNA from a 130-year-old Tasmanian tiger, revealing gene activity and ancient viruses in extinct ...

Chemist Anne Lüscher showed at 39C3 how synthetic DNA can be used for data storage and tamper-proof authentication.

Inosine is a nucleoside that occurs naturally in transfer RNAs (tRNAs) and is essential for proper RNA translation. It is commonly found at the wobble position of anticodons, allowing for greater ...

Proteins are essential biological molecules that perform a vast array of functions crucial for life, from catalyzing ...

Hummingbird Diagnostics GmbH, a pioneer in harnessing blood-based small RNAs for early disease detection and characterization, today announced the publication of a new study in Nature Communications ...
