Study reveals UV radiation damages RNA, not DNA, triggering skin inflammation and cell death through ribotoxic stress response.

Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study reveals that RNA, another vital cellular molecule, plays a major role in triggering acute sunburn reactions.

A team has unearthed new findings about what happens during the minutes and hours after a cell divides, expanding our understanding of human biology -- and potentially leading to better medicines.

A type of RNA, known as messenger RNA (mRNA), functions as the intermediate ‘messenger’ that carries information from DNA to make proteins - the basic building blocks of cellular components.

Genetic changes have the ability to alter crop characteristics, and some crop breeding techniques take advantage of this.
