A new AI-driven framework enables highly accurate prediction of RNA splicing and isoform usage for therapeutic applications.
RNA is the means of translating the genetic code embedded in DNA into proteins, which serve as enzymes, transporters, ...
Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that a specific long non-coding RNA activates oncogenic signaling pathways in prostate cancer cells and drives tumor progression, underscoring its ...
A 45-nucleotide strand of RNA can now synthesize both its mirror-image complement and a copy of itself, bringing scientists closer than ever to demonstrating how life could have emerged from chemistry ...
When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...
Cancer is most treatable in its early stages, so finding innovative and non-invasive methods to diagnose cancer early on is crucial for fighting the disease. Liquid biopsies, which require just a ...
New CRISPR paradigm: HKUST scientists created a DNA-guided Cas12a system that targets RNA, reversing the traditional RNA-guided DNA model. Practical advantages: The DNA guides are more stable, cheaper ...
