The recently discovered long noncoding RNAs seem to boost the production of specific proteins in the cell by interacting with RNA-binding proteins, researchers find.

The pandemic spurred innovation in a variety of ways, from CRISPR-based diagnostics to cell biology benchwork at home.

Long before Moderna’s and Pfizer’s COVID-19 shots, scientists had been considering the use of genetically encoded vaccines in the fight against infectious diseases, cancer, and more.

The results mark the second experimental COVID-19 vaccine to show high efficacy, but the study is not complete and the data have not been peer reviewed.

Researchers detail how viral proteins interact with host RNA to disrupt the cell’s ability to fight back against infection.

The way in which mRNA transcripts are cut can influence the elasticity of the organ.

It’s now clear that gene transcripts can be constructed in various ways, yet many questions remain about the process.

An enzyme blocker is highly effective at treating intestinal parasitic infection in mice.

DNA microscopy pinpoints the locations of transcripts by laying a grid of tags over the molecules and labeling each connection.
