Crystal structure of the NHL domain of mouse TRIM71 complexed with a stem-loop structured Trincr1 RNA motif. Detailed interactions between key residues of TRIM71 and Trincr1 RNA are shown in an ...

A mysterious RNA molecule found only in breast cancer led researchers on a six-year hunt that uncovered an entire hidden layer of cancer biology. The story began with T3p, a tiny RNA molecule found in ...

Despite being made from a relatively simple set of building blocks, ribonucleic acid (RNA) has a broad array of complex responsibilities. From providing structure to carrying the instructions for ...

Researchers test state-of-the-art models on diverse RNA structures, opening doors for RNA-based therapies and drug design Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is one of life’s most versatile molecules, with roles ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common adult-onset form of ...

RNA is a central biological macromolecule, now widely harnessed in medicine and nanotechnology. Like proteins, RNA function often depends on its precise three-dimensional structure. A recent study ...

A study of a bacteria commonly used in dairy fermentation revealed how organized RNA helixes, called riboswitches, can combine different signals to keep gene expression in check. Researchers from the ...
