Life's instructions are written in DNA, but it is the enzyme RNA polymerase II (Pol II) that reads the script, transcribing ...

When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits ...

RNA is a central biological macromolecule, now widely harnessed in medicine and nanotechnology. Like proteins, RNA function ...

Obelisks—tiny RNA circles with protein-coding genes—have been found in the human microbiome, revealing a hidden RNA universe ...

All starting from the same DNA, neurons ultimately take on individual characteristics in the brain and body. Differences in ...

A study captured the first near frame-by-frame view of a self-splicing ribozyme assembling into its active form. Using ...

Researchers have visualised, in unprecedented detail, how a large RNA molecule assembles itself into a functional machine The image represents ...

MIT researchers mapped RNA editing across more than 200 individual fly motor neurons, uncovering hundreds of canonical and ...

This study presents a valuable tool named TSvelo, a computational framework for RNA velocity inference that models transcriptional regulation and gene-specific splicing. The evidence supporting the ...

Researchers at Stockholm University carefully ground up bits of muscle and other tissue from Yuka and nine other woolly mammoths, then used special chemical treatments to pull out any remaining RNA ...

New research published in the journal Cell reveals that scientists have managed to extract RNA, the molecule that translates ...
