RNA

Researchers successfully identified all five nucleobases of DNA and RNA in meteorites

Experiment sheds light on the molecular evolution of RNA.

New technology enables an unprecedented glimpse inside single brain cells.

mRNA provides a blueprint for proteins.

DisCo: a powerful tool that can “read” the genetic profile of an individual cell.

An international team has mapped how the HTLV-1 virus causes rare leukemia in some people.

A missing genetic switch at the origin of malformations.

Insights will promise new approaches to the treatment of memory-related disorders.

Scratching the surface in terms of scientific progress to be made.

In a discovery that challenges long-held dogma in biology, scientists show that mammalian cells can convert RNA sequences back into DNA, a feat more common in viruses than eukaryotic cells.

The new research takes its starting point from the idea that stoichiometry, or chemical ratios, can serve as biosignatures.

The method offers inexpensive imaging at the scale of virus particles.
