“Whether due to natural or human-induced changes in climate, habitat and food source, the extinction of an untold number of species is a loss to our planet’s history and biodiversity. Modern ...

Instead, they rely on the RNA silencing system, which serves as their innate immune defense by recognizing and degrading viral RNA. In turn, viruses have evolved viral suppressors to inhibit the ...

RNA silencing processes result in the sequence-specific degradation of RNA and effective post-transcriptional gene silencing. In the May 17 Science, Hongwei Li and colleagues from the University of ...

The yeast RGG motif-containing RNA binding protein Scd6 and its human ortholog LSM14A regulate the translation of specific ...

This seminal study inspired Izgu and his team to push the boundaries of the RNA-induced light generation concept. "We used our chemistry knowledge and turned RNA into a detector for ...

RNA normally would not interact with these types of chemicals, and it would be exceedingly challenging to sense them through complex genetic ... boundaries of the RNA-induced light generation ...

PROSTOX predicts late genitourinary toxicity, yielding area under the curve of 0.76. (HealthDay News) — A biomarker consisting primarily of microRNA-based germline biomarkers (mirSNPs), PROSTOX ...

Since its discovery 16 years ago, researchers have been eyeing RNA interference (RNAi)—a natural process of posttranscriptional silencing of genes by small fragments of the nucleic acid—for its ...

This study provides valuable findings on the role of site-specific DNA methylation changes during spermatogenesis and their contribution to paternal epigenetic inheritance. The study proposes that ...
