In the 1980s, scientists found the first examples of RNA sequences that did not match the corresponding DNA. Today, many genes in humans and other organisms are now known to be targets of RNA editing.

Alan Herbert, InsideOutBio, discusses the significant advancements in RNA therapeutics, highlighting their role in supporting ...

RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions ...

Most everyone is already familiar with one example of how scientists are harnessing the power of RNA in medicine. Both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines use a type of RNA called mRNA to create ...

Non-coding RNAs constitute almost 98% of the human genome. Long non-coding RNA (lnc RNA) is a large class of this family where the RNA sequences are more than 200 nucleotides long and do not ...

First, they wanted to improve the interactions among the template RNA, the ribozyme, and the primer sequence that starts the copying. To make RNA, the ribozyme has to recognize the primer and the ...

New findings show how thioesters could have been built, an important step to providing the energy needed for protein ...

What Is Virus Genome Sequence or Viral Genome Sequencing? The genome sequence of a virus is the sequence or order of bases or letters that make up a virus’s genetic material, or its genome. If ...
