Chemists at UCL (University College London) have shown how two of biology’s most fundamental ingredients, RNA (ribonucleic acid) and amino acids, could have spontaneously joined together at the origin ...

Aided by RNA origami, the Heidelberg synthetic biologist and her team succeeded in creating an essential structural component of synthetic cells -- an artificial cytoskeleton.

A new method to measure the half-life of RNA molecules has now been created by researchers. Their study revealed that commonly used methods provide distorted results and that RNA molecules live an ...

Researchers at San Diego State University and Michigan State University are shedding new light on how viruses meticulously pack their genetic material — a breakthrough that could help ...

The findings mark a significant step forward for RNA therapeutics, which have shown promise in treating cancers, genetic disorders, and now inflammatory diseases.

A research team from National Taiwan University, Academia Sinica, and National Taiwan University Hospital has uncovered a critical connection between a unique RNA molecule and human aging ...
