Although there are striking differences between the cells that make up your eyes, kidneys, brain and toes, the DNA blueprint ...

A 45-nucleotide strand of RNA can now synthesize both its mirror-image complement and a copy of itself, bringing scientists closer than ever to demonstrating how life could have emerged from chemistry ...

Researchers at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge have discovered a ribozyme that is shockingly small, yet ...

These random molecules were fed a collection of three-base-long RNAs, each linked to a chemical tag. The idea was that if a molecule is capable of ligating one of these short RNA fragments to itself, ...

Researchers have developed a near-single-cell resolution spatial transcriptomic approach to study developmentally regulated RNA processes.

Diabetic foot ulcers are slow-healing and increase the risk of infections and amputation. Researchers at Karolinska ...

Life may have begun when RNA molecules began to replicate themselves, and now we’ve finally found an RNA molecule that is very close to being able to do this ...

AI can help protein engineers optimize the transcription enzymes used to make mRNA-based vaccines and therapeutics, say the authors of a new study.

The US Food and Drug Administration has refused to accept an application from Moderna to review its first mRNA seasonal flu vaccine, the company said Tuesday, in another setback for the technology ...

Researchers reprogrammed bacterial bridge recombinases to edit large genomic regions in mammalian cells, revealing a ...

C.S. Lewis once wrote, "I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name was grief." I love that quote because it gets at the heart of how complex feelings can be during a divorce.
