A single enzyme that can generate all four nucleoside triphosphates, the building blocks of ribonucleic acid (RNA), has been ...
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 ...
When the concept of RNA interference was first introduced in the early 2000s, it raised the tantalizing possibility of using RNA molecules to modify human gene expression. 1 Since then, a wide range ...
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 ...
Researchers have made a significant advance in understanding how genes are controlled in living organisms. The new study focuses on critical snippets of RNA in the tiny, transparent roundworm ...
