Federal funding cuts to mRNA technology research doesn't just impact COVID vaccines — experts say it could stall progress in ...

Using artificial intelligence, MIT researchers have come up with a new way to design nanoparticles that can more efficiently ...

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 ...

Vaccine experts and people steeped in pandemic preparedness expressed horror at the news that RFK Jr. has shut the door in U.S. investment in mRNA vaccine research.

Variant allele frequencies between RNA-seq and DNA-seq showed strong correlations. Among tumors sequenced with diagnostic intent, 37 received new diagnoses, representing 1.9% of evaluable cases.

For decades, the central dogma of molecular biology—DNA makes RNA, RNA makes protein, protein makes phenotype—was the guiding framework for understanding inheritance and disease. This model ...

Qi and his colleagues used a version of the gene-editing tool CRISPR, called CRISPR-Cas13, to target individual pieces of RNA (unlike the more widely known CRISPR-Cas9, which targets DNA).

RNA in control By uncovering RNA’s previously unknown function to repair DNA damage, our findings show how RNA may directly contribute to the stability and evolution of the genome.
