Failure of a gene-reading quality-control mechanism called Integrator leaves cells littered with abnormal RNA strands that ...
Specifically, one strand of a double-stranded siRNA molecule can be incorporated into a complex called RISC. This RNA-containing complex can then inhibit transcription of an mRNA molecule that has ...
The scientist who discovered hybridization and the "other" double helix describes what it meant to biology. By Alexander Rich Fifty-two years ago I was venturing to the basement of Cal Tech chemistry ...

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules may be best known for their job ferrying the genetic information encoded in DNA to a cell's ...
Comparison of a single-stranded RNA and a double-stranded DNA with their corresponding nucleobases (Image: Wikimedia Commons, CC SA 3.0) Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules are responsible for delivering ...
But Storici's team found that RNA can also help cells repair a severe form of DNA damage called a double-strand break, or DSB. A DSB means both strands of the DNA helix have been severed.
Codexis to showcase data that demonstrate the scalability and reproducibility of its enzymatic siRNA manufacturing processes Three CDMO presentations to feature data on performance of Codexis ...
Small interfering RNAs—also called short interfering or silencing RNAs (siRNAs)—are double-stranded RNA molecules approximately 20–24 (typically 21) base pairs in length. These function ...
Scientists develop RNA-based technology to combat plant viruses, enhancing crop immunity and reducing losses worldwide.

Enzymes called RNA polymerases transcribe DNA into RNA. RNA is the intermediary that carries the information contained within DNA to the ribosomes, where the genetic information is synthesized into ...
