The field of cancer epigenetics examines how heritable changes in gene regulation - independent of DNA sequence - impact ...
Gene expression is linked to RNA transcription, which cannot happen without RNA polymerase. However, this is where the similarities between prokaryote and eukaryote expression end. Central to the ...
A research team has developed a new RNA-based system that can detect coronavirus infection in real time inside living cells—and even trigger antiviral responses only when infection occurs.
Fred Hutch researchers invent a CRISPR screening method to understand RNA-binding proteins often mutated in cancer and other diseases In biology’s standard tale of two acids — deoxyribonucleic (DNA) ...
Thanks to a first-of-its-kind platform, we are starting to understand how the molecular engine responsible for transcription in mammals controls its speed. A team of researchers from The Rockefeller ...
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common adult-onset form of ...
The technology, called the Viral-Engineered RNA-based Activation System (VERAS), hijacks the virus's own replication ...
