Resolve Therapeutics, a leader in the emerging field of cell-free nucleic acid therapeutics, today announced a collaboration with the Department of Surgery, Duke University School of Medicine to ...

Life is thought to have begun when RNA began replicating itself, and researchers have got close to achieving this in the lab ...

Scientists have developed a method for analysing the structure of lipid nanoparticles that could be used to improve vaccine ...

Somatic hypermutation (SHM) of immunoglobulin variable (V) regions modulates antibody-antigen affinity is initiated by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA).

How life arose remains a looming question in science that researchers are seeking to answer by studying the features shared among life today ...

Duke University Medical Center-led research has identified a human-specific DNA enhancer that regulates neural progenitor ...

The RNP complex is the influenza virus’s essential package, the virus’s blueprints and a copy machine all rolled in one. The ...

Ribonucleic acid, also called RNA, is a molecule present in all living cells. It plays a critical role in transmitting ...

In Biology 101, we learn that RNA is a single, ribbon-like strand of base pairs that is copied from our DNA then read like a recipe to build a ...

“Then we add a chemical that modifies the RNA and allows us to study the structure as the molecules grow longer over time.” They also found that in mRNA, early folding dictates the final folded shape, ...

This is an RNA molecule generated in the lab that the team first presented in 2023. The researchers from the Institute of Organic Chemistry were able to determine the 3D structure of SAMURI using ...
