RNA normally would not interact with these types of chemicals, and it would be exceedingly challenging to sense them through complex genetic circuits ... and his team to push the boundaries of the RNA ...

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 ...

Finally, in vivo function of smooth muscle cell–specific Piezo1 knockout was evaluated upon induction of chronic hypoxia–induced PH in these mice with insights into pulmonary vascular cell senescence.

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 ...

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 ...
