While the fabled fountain of youth may not actually exist, a new type of therapy now does.

A team of researchers led by Dr. Kim V. Narry, director of the Center for RNA Research at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), has uncovered a key cellular mechanism that affects the function of ...

Cancer cells have softer membranes than healthy cells. New nanoparticles exploit this physical difference to fuse selectively with tumors and deliver mRNA therapy with minimal off-target effects.

A KAIST research team led by Professor Won Do Heo (Department of Biological Sciences) has developed an optogenetic platform, RELISR (REversible LIght-induced Store and Release), that enables precise ...

Researchers have developed a new microscopy technique to observe how ribosomes function in cells. With this method, they can monitor individual ribosomes as they convert mRNA into proteins. The ...

Genome-wide CRISPR knockout screens to identify cellular regulators of LNP-based mRNA vaccines. mRNAs encoding Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) were in vitro transcribed (IVT) and delivered to knockout ...
