Look inside a brain cell with Huntington's disease or ALS and you are likely to find RNA clumped together. These solid-like clusters, thought to be irreversible, can act as sponges that soak up ...

Scientists have created an artificial RNA system that can copy itself using simple building blocks and temperature changes.

Additionally, we found that RNA aids in double-strand break repair in both yeast and human cells, suggesting that its role in DNA repair is evolutionarily conserved across species.

Nucleic Acid Therapeutics Market Outlook The global industry was valued at US$ 8.8 Bn in 2024 It is projected to grow at a CAGR of 14.7% from 2025 to 2035 and reach US$ 44.5 Bn by the end of 2035 ...

NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission found ingredients for DNA and RNA on the asteroid Bennu. The discovery shows asteroids could seed planets with the precursors for life. It's also more evidence that life ...

DNA and RNA methylation, initially thought to operate as distinct pathways, have been shown to interact closely, shifting our understanding of gene regulation. A team of researchers from the ...

Until now, DNA and RNA epigenetics were studied as independent systems. These two mechanisms seemed to function separately, each playing its own role in distinct stages of the gene regulation process.

The role of RNA in a function called RNA interference — where small RNA molecules keep a gene from being expressed — has been essential for the success of CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing.

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) quantification involves measuring the concentration and assessing the purity of nucleic acids in a given sample. This process is essential as ...

The second group of most popular sequences in DNA or RNA vaccines against Mtb includes sequences of genes Rv0440, Rv0350, and Rv2031c, which encode heat shock proteins (HSPs) HSP65, HspX, and HSP70.

The team found that the noncoding RNA contained two loops, a donor loop that could recognize IS110’s own DNA, and a target loop able to recognize DNA at an insertion site somewhere in the genome.
