Less than a decade ago, biology underwent one of those once-in-a-generation events that shakes up a scientific field, when the discovery of gene editing technology called CRISPR/Cas-9 made it possible ...

Company Combines Existing NR2F6 and Survivin Gene Silencing Findings with Second Generation Checkpoint Inhibitor Approach Aptamers are short DNA or RNA sequences which can function as antibodies – ...

National University of Singapore (NUS) researchers have devised a method to safely and temporarily "switch off" and then "turn on" ribonucleic acid (RNA) inside cells. This is achieved using ...

'Pytheas' is an app created to identify and quantify modified RNA molecules more easily than ever. Scientists at Scripps Research have unveiled a new software tool for studying RNA (ribonucleic acid) ...

In eukaryotes, diverse mRNAs containing only short open reading frames (sORF-mRNAs) are induced at specific stages of development. Their mechanisms of action may involve the RNA itself and/or ...

This paper describes a novel biochemical effect of gramicidin, a class of peptide antibiotics produced by Bacillus brevis during the transition from vegetative growth to sporulation. Gramicidin ...
