The mRNA specifies, in triplet code, the amino acid sequence of proteins; the code is then read by transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules in a cell structure called the ribosome.

Professor Hirohide Saito and his research team have developed a new microRNA-responsive hybrid mRNA switch, enabling precise, ...

One of mRNA’s greatest advantages is the ability to rapidly iterate and optimize sequences, accelerating drug discovery and development. Advances in cell-free gene synthesis and in vitro transcription ...

Every living cell must interpret its genetic code—a sequence of chemical letters that governs countless cellular functions. A ...

Researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Israel Institute for Biological Research in Ness Ziona have used the platform ...

Self-amplifying mRNA vaccines include a special mRNA that replicates itself in the cell and contains a sequence for RNA replicase, in addition to the coding sequence for the protein.

Drug manufacturers say that noninfectious parts of the SV40 DNA sequence are used to create COVID-19 vaccines, but it’s routine and not a sign of the virus contaminating the vaccine.

Previous studies have created language models to decode various biological sequences, including proteins and DNA, but this was the first language model to focus on the untranslated region of mRNA.
