Scientists are exploring how RNA might have jump-started life four billion years ago and how it's now advancing drug ...

RNA in cells performs an astounding number of functions. Messenger RNA carries the sequences of active genes to cellular machinery that turns it into proteins. And transfer RNA molecules are an ...

A research team from the University of Cologne and collaborators has now shown that RNA interference, or RNAi for short, which is known to be a viral defense mechanism, also prevents the ...

CRISPR-Cas13, a powerful RNA-targeting technology is gaining increasing attention as a next-generation gene therapy platform due to its precision and reduced side effects. Utilizing this system, ...

To solve a problem, scientists first need to see it clearly. Whether it’s a virus slipping past the immune system or plaques forming in the brain, visualization is the first step toward finding ...

Interferon lambda concentrations in nasal lining fluid fell in or above the predicted therapeutic range with a nasally ...

An experimental RNA therapy from Avidity Biosciences has early clinical trial results showing it reduced by half the expression of a gene at the root of a rare, inherited form of muscular dystrophy ...
