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.

Increasing paternal age has been linked to elevated health risks for the next generation, including higher risks of obesity ...

The functioning of neurons, cells that transmit information in the nervous system, heavily relies on the production of ...

Scientists have transformed enigmatic cell structures, called vaults, into storage units for messenger-RNA molecules made in ...

The so-called ticking biological clock has been framed largely as a concern for women. We talk about egg freezing, ovarian ...

New research provides a mechanistic map of how genetic mutations disrupt RNA splicing in acute myeloid leukemia.

Treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) depends on knowing what goes wrong inside cells. A new study suggests that two genetic ...

Molecular mechanism uncovered in mice by UC Santa Cruz researchers reveals how a father’s diet, stress, and other ...

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 ...
