A variety of molecules protrude from the cell surface, including glycoproteins, glycolipids, and the newly discovered glycoRNAs. This illustration depicts RNA as a double-stranded stem…
A collaboration between biologists and physicists suggests that RNA is a feedback regulator of its own production. Low concentrations of RNA lead to the formation…
Newly described chemical reaction could have assembled DNA building blocks before life forms and their enzymes existed. Discovery boosts theory that life on our planet…
The development of mRNA knock-down technologies for use in vertebrate organisms such as zebrafish has been limited. CRISPR-RfxCas13d has been identified as an effective method…
MIT researchers have developed a method to isolate T cells that bind to different targets and then sequence their RNA. Credit: SciStories LLC Researchers develop…
Possible Model for How Biological Polymers May Have Formed during the Origin of Life on Earth. Credit: Bracher Lab, Saint Louis University Uncovering how the…
Heart muscle can continue to die even after restoring blood following a heart attack, and scientists have new evidence that one way to help it…
First cells on ancient Earth may have emerged because building blocks of proteins stabilized membranes. Life on Earth arose about 4 billion years ago when…
MIT researchers have designed inhalable particles that can deliver messenger RNA. These lung epithelial cells have taken up particles (yellow) that carry mRNA encoding green…
