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

RNA Secondary Structure: The pattern of intra-molecular base pairing that forms elements like hairpins, loops and stems, crucial for the overall three-dimensional shape of the molecule.

And then there’s the paucity of known RNA structures. The Protein Data Bank, a repository of 3D macromolecular structures, contains nearly 200,000 protein structures and fewer than 2,000 RNAs.

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

Using this time scale, the structures of many life saving RNA may not be discovered for years. As a result, there is a significant gap between the types of known RNA and the available structural data.

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

Researchers at San Diego State University and Michigan State University are shedding new light on how viruses meticulously ...

China-based RNA therapeutics developer Ribopeutic has raised close to 100 million yuan ($13.9 million) in pre-A financing, ...

A new nanotube-based RNA delivery system boosts plant regeneration by switching off a molecule that blocks shoot growth, ...

The ability to correct disease-causing genetic mistakes using genome editors holds great promise in medicine, but it is not without risk. When this type of "genetic surgery" is performed on DNA, for ...
