An innovative three-color method for capturing images of mRNA inside live mammalian cells has been developed by UMass Amherst chemists. Because RNA is both incredibly important to human life and ...

Viruses are entities that have to infect other cells in order to replicate. They may have genomes that are made of DNA or RNA. We are still discovering new types of RNA viruses, as shown in two new ...

While targeted protein and RNA degradation are hot areas for R&D, the drugs developed so far come with limitations. Now, a new class with broader applications may not be far off. In a study published ...

Researchers at the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) in Brazil have discovered that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes ...

This article explores how challenges such as sequence optimization, immune activation and off-target effects are being ...

Endogenous RNA is central to protein control and, ultimately, cellular function. Synthetic RNA is an important tool for biological research and is also offering a new generation of promising ...

Spatial RNA medicine combines transcriptomics and RNA therapeutics, mapping gene expression in tissues to enhance precision oncology and targeted therapies.

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Methods, a group of researchers developed a novel method called Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) High-Order Folding Prediction Plus (RhoFold+). This deep ...

A study by the Federal University of São Paulo describes how SARS-CoV-2 interacts with the RNA of infected lung cells in an unprecedented way. The results may guide the search for new treatments and ...
