RNA sequencing could help predict future outbreaks

Research examines how two coupled processes change in the cell responding to an outside stimulus

Some of the keys to unlocking the origin of life lie encrypted in the ribosome, life’s oldest and most universal assembly of molecules

CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technique can be transiently activated and inactivated using RNA-based drugs, giving researchers more precise control in correcting and inactivating genes

RNA interference experiments identify crucial genes and proteins behind the processes that regenerate amputated cricket legs

Decontamination of polluted sites, often many hectares in scale, is costly and in itself can have a high environmental impact

A novel insecticide targets a specific gene in a pest, killing only that bug species on crops and avoiding collateral damage to beneficial insects caused by today’s pesticides.

RNAMiner makes genetic science easier, could lead to faster results

Research from the University of Manchester using cutting edge computer analysis reveals that despite mutating, Ebola hasn’t evolved to become deadlier since the first outbreak 40 years ago.

MicroRNA (miRNA) play an important role in controlling different processes that occur in cells through gene regulation. These small molecules are able to regulate many cellular processes by reducing target amounts in the cells. There are more than 1,900 locations in the human genome that are known to produce these miRNA molecules.
