Inside every cell, thousands of molecular signals collide, overlap, and compensate, obscuring the true drivers of gene expression.
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 ...
From vaccines and diagnostics to emerging gene-based therapies, RNA molecules are now central to modern medicine. But as their use continues to grow, so does a fundamental challenge: producing RNA ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Nucleic acids are becoming increasingly popular for assembling nanoscale structures, thanks to their programmable dimensionality and direct applications in the biological field.
Genetics tools have advanced significantly in recent decades, and have allowed scientist to sequence all of the genetic ...
Mutations in or mislocalization of RNA-binding proteins, such as TDP-43 and FUS, are linked to protein aggregation in frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Now, researchers led by ...
Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.
