In Biology 101, we learn that RNA is a single, ribbon-like strand of base pairs that is copied from our DNA and then read ...

Researchers have identified a never-before-seen mechanism that enables HIV-1 to evade the body's natural defenses and use it to support its survival and replication. The 'loophole' is a biological ...

In an important discovery, researchers from Florida Atlantic University's Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine have ...

Learn how single-cell transcriptomics is helping researchers explore gene activity and immune system diseases with ...

The interaction between RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) has emerged as a key area of interest in understanding cancer biology.

Researchers found the PHGDH gene directly causes Alzheimer’s and discovered a drug-like molecule, NCT-503, that may help ...

We are now entering the third decade of the 21st Century, and, especially in the last years, the achievements made by scientists have been exceptional, ...

Cryogenic electron microscopy showed for the first time that large RNA complexes can assemble without the help of proteins, expanding our understanding of RNA folding and function.

Multi omics studies explore the interactions among multiple living substances during plant growth and development, including ...

When a species reproduces, typically, each parent passes on one of their two versions (alleles) of a given gene to their offspring. But not all alleles play fair in their quest to be passed onto ...

Among the hundreds of undergraduates who presented their research at this year's Meeting of the Minds — CMU’s annual undergraduate research symposium — some focused their research efforts on improving ...
