A new review highlights the transformative potential of transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) in the field of liquid biopsy, emphasizing their role as promising biomarkers for a wide range of ...

Startup hC Bioscience emerges with $24M to join pursuit of transfer RNA therapies New startup hC Bioscience is developing therapies based on transfer RNA, molecules that can be leveraged to ...

Transfer RNA may be the oldest type of RNA molecule in the cell, and its fundamental role in gene translation has not changed much as life evolved. Secondary functions have arisen in the course of ...

Alltrna Inc. raised $109 million in a series B round to back its work with transfer RNA, with the first targeted indication of stop codon disease: a condition that takes in thousands of rare and ...

Transfer RNA, more commonly referred to as tRNA, is well known for its key role in translating genetic material into protein. Recent discoveries about fragments of tRNA, which scientists had ...

"Transfer RNAs are ancient molecules," said Gustavo Caetano-Anollés of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. "They're molecular fossils." Caetano-Anollés and his colleague Feng-Jie Sun ...
