Enzymes called RNA polymerases transcribe DNA into RNA. RNA is the intermediary that carries the information contained within DNA to the ribosomes, where the genetic information is synthesized into ...

A study from Würzburg reveals that pox viruses have developed a unique strategy to rapidly multiply after infecting a host ...

DNA holds our genetic blueprints, but its cousin, RNA, conducts our daily lives I n 1957, just four years after Francis Crick ...

In a recent study published in the journal Cell, researchers developed a deep learning model, "LucaProt," a transformer-based AI model to detect highly divergent ribonucleic acid (RNA)-dependent RNA ...

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TriLink BioTechnologies and Alphazyme, both part of Maravai LifeSciences, have collaborated to launch CleanScribe™ RNA Polymerase, a novel enzyme that reduces ...

When RNA molecules are synthesized by cells — a critical process in the creation of proteins and other cellular functions — they typically undergo a series of “folding” events that determine their ...

Scientists provide fresh insights on the origins of life, presenting compelling evidence supporting the 'RNA World' hypothesis. The study unveils an RNA enzyme that can make accurate copies of other ...

The ability to correct disease-causing genetic mistakes using genome editors holds great promise in medicine, but it is not without risk. When this type of "genetic surgery" is performed on DNA, for ...

A novel C-3-substituted oleanolic acid benzyl amide derivative, designated A5, inhibits the influenza A virus by disrupting the interaction between PA C –PB1 N and prevents cytokine storms by ...

The thylacine, more commonly known as the Tasmanian tiger, was declared extinct over eight decades ago. However, recent advances in scientific research have enabled the recovery of RNA from this ...
