Much like a courier reading an address on a package, neurons must deliver RNA to the precise locations where it is needed. A ...

Researchers have now uncovered the 3D structure of the RNA enzyme SAMURI. Their study provides insights into the development of ribozymes and the evolution of catalytically active RNA. Researchers led ...

RhoBAST is a tiny RNA molecule that activates fluorescent dyes, enabling researchers to track RNA molecules in living cells ...

Researchers at the University of Würzburg have unveiled a new tool for analyzing RNA molecules. It visualizes their structures as interactive maps and could help to improve our understanding of ...

Scientists have uncovered the workings of a previously unknown RNA delivery system in neurons — one that selects specific RNA ...

SANTA CRUZ, CA — Researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, have determined the three-dimensional structure of an RNA enzyme, or “ribozyme,” that carries out a fundamental reaction ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are increasingly being applied in the field of RNA biology. These methods are used to predict RNA structures, interactions with proteins and small ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Methods, a group of researchers developed a novel method called Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) High-Order Folding Prediction Plus (RhoFold+). This deep ...

RNA-based therapeutics use RNA as a blueprint that enables cells to produce specific proteins—including proteins that can ...

When RNA molecules are synthesized by cells — a critical process in the creation of proteins and other cellular functions — they typically undergo a series of “folding” events that determine their ...

A team of researchers at Kumamoto University has uncovered a mechanism in the formation of harmful protein aggregates that lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease. The team, led ...
