Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study reveals that RNA, another vital cellular molecule, plays a major role in triggering acute sunburn reactions.
Researchers have discovered that DNA and RNA epigenetics form a complementary system that precisely regulates gene activity, ...
Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee ...
