Viruses are entities that have to infect other cells in order to replicate. They may have genomes that are made of DNA or RNA. We are still discovering new types of RNA viruses, as shown in two new ...

A group of interdisciplinary Boston University researchers worked together to investigate the promising technology of self-amplifying RNA as a way to deliver lifesaving drugs and create more effective ...

Reduce amplification bias caused by variable miRNA abundance using automated PCR normalization for NEXTFLEX small RNA sequencing workflows.

A mysterious RNA found in breast cancer led scientists to uncover an entire hidden class of cancer-specific RNAs across dozens of tumor types. These molecules form unique molecular signatures that ...

Endogenous RNA is central to protein control and, ultimately, cellular function. Synthetic RNA is an important tool for biological research and is also offering a new generation of promising ...

This work presents a redox-responsive strategy for precise RNA control via post-synthetic 2′-OH acylation. These introduced disulfide-containing acyl groups can be selectively cleaved upon exposure to ...

Northwestern University in Illinois, US, has announced a new method for detecting RNA modification patterns in blood samples that could enhance early colon cancer detection. This was detailed in a ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Methods, a group of researchers developed a novel method called Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) High-Order Folding Prediction Plus (RhoFold+). This deep ...
