A research team from POSTECH has developed a biodegradable polymer-based delivery system that efficiently transports mRNA.

Researchers developed a technique to gain a deeper understanding of ribosome function and their cooperative behaviors.

For decades, scientists have tried to stop cancer by disabling the mutated proteins that are found in tumors. But many cancers manage to overcome this and continue growing. Now, scientists think they ...

RNA-based medicines are one of the most promising ways to fight human disease, as demonstrated by the recent successes of RNA ...

This paper addresses the important question of quantifying epistasis patterns, which affect the predictability of evolution, by reanalyzing a recently published combinatorial deep mutational scan ...

Ramakrishnan, a distinguished structural biologist and Nobel Laureate in Chemistry (2009), is renowned for his groundbreaking ...

While drugmakers are hard at work on the shots, they’re not yet ready to blunt the impact of a potential pandemic.

Codon optimization takes into account factors such as codon usage bias, tRNA abundance, GC content, and RNA secondary structure. By carefully selecting codon combinations, researchers can improve ...

Wall Street is off to a volatile start in 2025, with investors stepping on the sell pedal after last week's jobs data, followed by a sharp about-face in sentiment following Wednesday's consumer ...

Moderna's mRNA technology gained rapid validation as sales of its covid vaccine soared in 2021 and 2022, but we think the firm has yet to secure a narrow economic moat around its business ...

For example, tRNA (transfer RNA) is an adapter molecule that deciphers the genetic code on mRNA (messenger RNA) into a functional product (protein) on the ribosome. RNA research is currently ...

Melis­sa Moore helped ush­er in the first mR­NA med­i­cines, but the for­mer Mod­er­na ex­ec­u­tive thinks there’s still a lot of room for im­prove­ment.
