Researchers from the University of Eastern Finland and Aalto University have developed a computational framework called ...

Scientists gained new insights into RNA-mediated regulation of proteins (riboregulation) and its role in controlling cell growth, and most importantly how undifferentiated cells (embryonic stem cells) ...

A Purdue University research team has revealed complex new details about the function of a key protein shared by mammals, including humans. Many cancers result when this DNA methyltransferase protein ...

Unlike the much-buzzed-about CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing system, RNA editing doesn’t cause permanent changes to the genome, and could therefore have its own applications in treating genetic disorders. In ...

Two new research papers from the Living Brain Project at Mount Sinai present what is, by several metrics, the largest investigation ever performed of the biology of the living human brain. The papers ...

Scientists know that TDP-43, which helps regulate processing of RNA, may be responsible for the death of nerve cells in ALS and frontotemporal dementia. And a study suggests that a common modification ...

In 2021, the lab of chemical biologist and Nobel Laureate Carolyn Bertozzi, PhD, professor at Stanford University, characterized a new type of cell-surface protein, termed glycoRNAs, that form highly ...
