RNA and DNA extraction kits take formalin-fixed tissue samples by storm, enabling superior quality and yields.

RNA sequencing allows scientists to study the expression of genes in a cell. Since messenger RNA (mRNA) is generated from a DNA gene, that information can be used to identify the original gene ...

In 1957, just four years after Francis Crick and other scientists solved the riddle of DNA’s structure—the now famous double ...

DNA’s chemical cousin, RNA, was the messenger that carries DNA instructions from the double helix in the cell’s nucleus to ...

Per a report by Future Market Insights, the anticipated size of the DNA/RNA extraction market in 2022 was $1.3 billion and is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 7.4% between 2023 and 2033, totaling ...

Scientists have developed a new extraction protocol for RNA-seq and metabolomic analysis, offering a more complete picture of cellular activity than either technique on its own. The protocol ...

RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions ...

RNA’s Surprising Role in DNA Repair New insights could lead to improved treatments for cancer and other diseases. Francesca Storici and her research team discovered a surprising role for RNA in DNA ...

Cytosine is one of the four main nitrogenous bases found in DNA and RNA, along with adenine (A), guanine (G), and thymine (T) or uracil (U). It is a pyrimidine derivative, meaning it has a single-ring ...
