RNA Polymerase (shown in blue) moves across a template strand of DNA (shown in purple) and transcribes it into RNA (shown in red). But DNA damage blocks the RNA polymerase, causing it to stall and ...

While great strides have been made in exploring the world of RNA, mysteries remain—and one approach to solving them is to look at what exactly a strand of RNA is doing in a cell in real time. At a ...

RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions (IDR), reports a new study from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Using ...

Gene therapy has been heralded as the new frontier of medicine, but there are still many limitations to current technologies; among them, how to deliver therapeutic genes to specific cells, and only ...

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 ...
