Researchers have found an ancient protein fold that might explain how life’s basic building blocks became the complex systems ...

But then it gets more complicated. The DNA is transcribed into another genetic material called messenger RNA in order to make proteins—the workers and building blocks of the cell. Synthetic Life ...

Most people don't enjoy getting shots for treatments or vaccines. So, researchers are working to create more medicines, such as those made from messenger RNA (mRNA), that can be sprayed and inhaled. A ...

RNA medicines encode proteins that could treat or prevent a variety of illnesses, including lung diseases. However, these ...

Messenger RNA carries genetic information from DNA in the highly protected ... Another challenge is the stability of mRNA molecules. Efforts are being made to engineer mRNA with enhanced stability and ...

There are three types of RNA involved in the translation process: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer ... and other RNA molecules make up the critical protein synthesis machinery in ribosomes.
