Researchers in Sweden recovered RNA from a 130-year-old Tasmanian tiger, allowing them to identify which genes were active in its tissues before extinction.

Research into how a father’s choices — such as diet, exercise, stress, nicotine use — may transfer traits to his children has ...

For years, ETH researchers have been investigating a molecular complex that plays a key role in protein synthesis. They have ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich recently explained the role of a molecular complex that orchestrates the production of proteins in ...

RNA is usually portrayed as a molecule that works deep inside the cell, helping to turn genetic information into proteins.

An innovative three-color method for capturing images of mRNA inside live mammalian cells has been developed by UMass Amherst chemists. Because RNA is both incredibly important to human life and ...

Researchers at the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) in Brazil have discovered that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes ...

A study by the Federal University of São Paulo describes how SARS-CoV-2 interacts with the RNA of infected lung cells in an unprecedented way. The results may guide the search for new treatments and ...

When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits that RNA before it is translated into protein. Many genes can be processed and ...

Increasing the number of steps you take every day may slow cognitive decline in older adults who already have biological signs of early Alzheimer’s disease, according to a new observational study. The ...
