In reality, there is much more to the RNA story. However, in the half-century since the structure of DNA was first elaborated, scientists have learned that RNA does much more than simply play a ...

Biologists have discovered a new type of RNA-splicing regulation that helps to determine which protein-coding exons will be included in messenger RNA transcripts.

This discovery, along with the identification of other nitrogenous bases, laid the foundation for our understanding of DNA and RNA structure. Cytosine can be synthesized chemically or isolated from ...

They say that change takes time. Well, that's not the case for RNA. The small biological molecule acts like a switchboard ...

Researchers in Purdue’s College of Science have created a program named NuFold, which will help progress RNA research by over a decade.

Scientists uncover how the nucleolus, a tiny structure within cells, may control aging and lifespan, opening new ...

From there, DNA or RNA provides the instructions for cells ... McCoy's team also hopes to find bits of water trapped in the crystalline structure of Bennu's mineral grains and trace that water's ...

“As people latch on—and they are!—to the native DNA and RNA, and then we provide the proteome in five years’ time, the two will catalyze and we will find more insights and interesting ...

Using a new technology and computational method, researchers have uncovered a biomarker capable of accurately predicting outcomes in meningioma brain tumors and breast cancers.

In this study, the researchers reveal the structure of U11 snRNP—one ... introns—from the precursors of messenger RNA ...
