DNA makes RNA, RNA makes protein, protein makes phenotype—was the guiding framework for understanding inheritance and disease ...

Credit: Kateryna Kon/Science Photo Library/ What is DNA, and how does it work? You don't need a degree in genetics to understand. Here, we'll give an overview of DNA and answer questions ...

How does a cell know when it’s been damaged? A molecular alarm, set off by mutated RNA and colliding ribosomes, signals ...

No longer a mere assistant who carries out the commands of DNA, RNA takes the lead in emerging therapeutics.

Researchers discovered a previously unknown function of RNA, potentially opening the door to new ways to treat cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

Linked to neurological disorders, repeat RNAs aggregate inside droplets but can be disassembled with an engineered piece of ...

Ben Hall and Sol Speigelman carry out DNA-RNA hybridization in viral infected bacterial system. 15 Rich and colleagues publish on two RNA double helix fragments solving the structure at atomic ...

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 ...

Accurate measurement of DNA or RNA concentration and purity is fundamental for many downstream processes, including transfection, electroporation, cloning, PCR and NGS. 1, 2 Without proper ...

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.

They carry genetic instructions from DNA to ribosomes — the factories inside cells that turn amino acids into the proteins necessary for many cell functions. But Storici’s team found that RNA can also ...
