Inside cells, RNAs and proteins form tiny, liquid-like droplets called biomolecular condensates. These droplets are essential ...
Life's instructions are written in DNA, but it is the enzyme RNA polymerase II (Pol II) that reads the script, transcribing ...
RNA is a central biological macromolecule, now widely harnessed in medicine and nanotechnology. Like proteins, RNA function ...
Researchers have designed a smart drug that hunts down and breaks a little-known RNA that cancer cells depend on. The drug recognizes a unique fold in the RNA and triggers the cell to destroy it.
Researchers at Stockholm University carefully ground up bits of muscle and other tissue from Yuka and nine other woolly ...
Detailed mapping of CD4⁺ T cells from children with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has revealed distinct immune cell ...
Scientists have discovered a method of helping human stem cells thrive in an animal embryo—a key development in efforts to ...
Mármol and his colleagues extracted RNA sequences from the muscles and skin of 10 permafrozen woolly mammoth specimens found across Northeastern Siberia. Analysis of one specimen, a juvenile mammoth ...
A 40,000-year-old juvenile woolly mammoth named Yuka is not only remarkable because she was uncovered nearly intact or her ...
Scientists have extracted the oldest RNA molecules out of a woolly mammoth, gaining a snapshot into the processes at work in the extinct mammal's body just before it died.
