Around your mid-40s and again in your early 60s, your body might go through more dramatic changes than you expect. A recent ...

This study provides useful information on the impact of Lamin A/C knockdown on gene expression using RNA-Seq analysis. In addition, the impact of Lamin A/C knockdown on telomere dynamics is explored ...

Researchers discovered a previously unknown function of RNA, potentially opening the door to new ways to treat cancer and ...

Not all DNA looks like the familiar twisted ladder. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes. One such structure, the G-quadruplex (G4), looks like a knot.

Cells depend on the precise reading of DNA sequences to function correctly. This process, known as gene expression, ...

Scientists have unlocked new details on important receptor proteins—promising targets for the creation of novel drugs for ...

A new large-scale study has mapped the first molecular events that drive the formation of harmful amyloid protein aggregates ...

Deep within our nerve cells, a molecule is at work that has no beginning and no end. Instead of a straight chain, as is common for most RNA strands, it forms a closed loop. Known as circular RNAs ...

RNA folding is the process by which a linear ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule acquires secondary structure through intra-molecular interactions. The folded domains of RNA molecules are often the ...
