The molecular machinery that normally builds proteins inside cells has now taken on a new role as a "switch." A research team ...

The speed at which a cell produces proteins is a decisive factor in determining whether it divides, specializes or retains its stem cell properties. A team of researchers led by Professor Stefan H.

NTxscribe FLEX is a flexible, purpose-built system that gives researchers and development teams direct control over their RNA production process.

The origin of life continues to remain a matter of debate. The ribonucleic acid (RNA) world hypothesis proposes that 'ribozymes' which store genetic information and possess catalytic functions may ...

In the study of bacteria, a longstanding dogma has held that two molecular machines—RNA polymerase, which leads the way in ...

There are plenty of unanswered questions about the origin of life on Earth. But the research community has largely reached consensus that one of the key steps was the emergence of an RNA molecule that ...

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has partnered with the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) to provide approximately $15.4 million over three years for research into the structures, ...

WASHINGTON — A new report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine provides a road map to develop the capacity to sequence any RNA molecule from any biological system with ...

Several types of RNA help regulate gene expression, and a number of these transcripts have been linked to Alzheimer’s disease. However, no one has comprehensively examined how the regulatory RNA ...
