Researchers find obelisks, mysterious RNA molecules in human bacteria that challenge our understanding of viruses and ...

The technology, called the Viral-Engineered RNA-based Activation System (VERAS), hijacks the virus’s own replication machinery to switch on reporter or therapeutic genes precisely in infected cells.

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai say they have made a new discovery about how human cells make RNA, a molecule that functions as a set of blueprints that tell cells how to ...

Pancreatic cancer may evade the immune system using a clever molecular trick. Researchers found that the cancer-driving ...

ORNL scientists created a biosensor technology that lets researchers visualize and track RNA activity in living plants, using a molecular splicing technique and a fluorescent marker protein. *This ...

It’s no secret that we need new ways to treat and detect disease, including cancer. Specifically, we need better biomarkers that can be used for diagnosis and better ways to selectively get medicine ...
