Cells in our bodies produce RNA based on genetic information stored in DNA, and RNA serves as a blueprint for making proteins. Researchers at KAIST have discovered a new phenomenon: Removing "circular ...
A study finds that removing accumulated circular RNA slows aging and extends lifespan, with an enzyme preventing toxic RNA buildup, and supporting healthy cellular function across organisms.
A metabolic enzyme studied for over seven decades has a hidden second function—it can unwind RNA and promote cell cycle progression, an additional function beyond its role in energy production, ...
Ribonucleic acids (RNAs) are the ultimate cellular insiders. They perform several critical jobs, such as ferrying genetic instructions from a living organism’s DNA to its protein-making machinery (a ...
Contrary to historic understanding of RNA’s longevity in cells, some RNAs can persist in cells throughout the life of an organism. Lead authors, Martin Hetzer, PhD, president of the Institute of ...
An interdisciplinary research team from two working groups at the Center for Synthetic Biology at TU Darmstadt has developed ...
By tagging neurons with molecular "barcodes," researchers have mapped connections among thousands of neurons in the mouse brain with unprecedented speed and resolution. The approach could expand ...
Endogenous RNA is central to protein control and, ultimately, cellular function. Synthetic RNA is an important tool for biological research and is also offering a new generation of promising ...
To understand the human genome, scientists focused on protein-coding genes and their functions for decades. This has given us ...
