RIKEN researchers have discovered how an enzyme modifies gene expression by targeting certain stretches of messenger RNA ...

The research, published in Science Translational Medicine, found that messenger RNA (mRNA) could be used to correct a rare liver genetic disease known as argininosuccinic aciduria in a mouse model of ...

RNA therapeutics target translation rather than DNA, aiming to correct shared protein production errors. By enabling cells to read through premature stop codons, engineered tRNAs could restore ...

A mysterious RNA found in breast cancer led scientists to uncover an entire hidden class of cancer-specific RNAs across ...

For decades, the central dogma of molecular biology—DNA makes RNA, RNA makes protein, protein makes phenotype—was the guiding framework for understanding inheritance and disease. This model explained ...

In a new study, published in Cell, researchers describe a newfound mechanism for creating proteins in a giant DNA virus, comparable to a mechanism in eukaryotic cells. The finding challenges the dogma ...

For a long time, extracellular vesicles (EVs) were often thought of as garbage bags containing a myriad of materials that cells don’t need. But scientists have since learned that EVs are instrumental ...

In 2018, the RNA Society endorsed Aug. 1 as annual World RNA Day, and depending on when you’re reading this article, the anniversary of that day is either upon you now or has likely passed you by ...
