The crystal structure of the small hammerhead ribozyme has greatly expanded our understanding of how RNA structure is related to RNA catalysis (but, for readers interested in knowing more about ...

RNA is a single stranded molecule containing a ribose sugar. It has a distinctive structure and, unlike DNA, there are variations and various types of RNA structures.

We discovered that RNA structure was a critical determinant of RNA splicing in HIV, and influenced which viral proteins were produced," Corbin said. Since RNA splicing can change a protein's function, ...

We mapped the human genome decades ago, but most of it is still a black box. Now, UNSW scientists have developed a tool to peer inside and what they find could reshape how we think about disease.

Researchers at the Regensburg Center for Biochemistry (RCB) and the Regensburg Center for Ultrafast Nanoscopy (RUN) at the ...
