One key component might be RNA, a molecular cousin of DNA found in every form of life on Earth, and now scientists say they ...

As antibiotic-resistant infections rise and are projected to cause up to 10 million deaths per year by 2050, scientists are looking to bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, as an alternative.

A research group at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT-Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia) has identified a candidate ...

Bacteria use a short RNA guide to detect viruses and activate a self-destruct mechanism that protects the wider microbial ...

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

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 analyzed ancient RNA from the extinct creatures. Could this be a “steppingstone” in the quest to bring them back?

Hummingbird Diagnostics GmbH, a pioneer in harnessing blood-based small RNAs for early disease detection and characterization, today announced the publication of a new study in Nature Communications ...

But only a tiny percentage of our DNA – around 2% – contains our 20,000-odd genes. The remaining 98% – long known as the non-coding genome, or so-called ‘junk’ DNA – includes many of the switches that ...

Instead of finding treatments for one rare disease, two University at Albany researchers have developed a compound that could ...
