Researchers from A*STAR’s Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) have found an innovative approach to sequencing single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) to study the roles of RNA structure in individual cells ...

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 ...

Molecular geneticists describe ways to develop the -- as yet largely untapped -- potential of RNA structures. The human genome has just over 20,000 genes coding for proteins. Yet, it produces at least ...

Researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, have determined the three-dimensional structure of an RNA enzyme, or “ribozyme,” that carries out a fundamental reaction required to make new ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for ...

An international team of scientists has designed a new type of therapy to target the mutant toxic RNA that causes myotonic ...

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 ...

In biology, getting rid of stuff can be just as important as making it. A buildup of cells, proteins, or other molecules that are no longer needed can cause problems, so living things have evolved ...

National University of Singapore (NUS) researchers have devised a method to safely and temporarily "switch off" and then "turn on" ribonucleic acid (RNA) inside cells. This is achieved using ...

Predicting RNA (ribonucleic acid) structures may help accelerate the discovery and development of new drugs to treat diseases and disorders. A new Stanford study published in Science uses artificial ...
