Scientists have identified a new RNA molecule that may play a key role in improving survival in cancer patients.

Researchers identified biallelic variants in RNU2-2 as the cause of a recessive neurodevelopmental disorder marked by ...

Early overactivity of ADARB1 accelerates RNA editing in developing brain regions, affecting gene function, neuronal communication, and circuit formation in Down syndrome, highlighting new paths for ...

Ribonucleic acids (RNAs) serve as messengers between DNA and protein production, and perform a wide variety of regulatory functions across different cellular processes. This makes them an interesting ...

A research team from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has made an advance in understanding the molecular machinery of RNA silencing. The team uncovered how the human enzyme ...

Stanford Medicine researchers have built CRISPR-GPT, a large language model designed to automate the full arc of gene-editing experiments, from selecting the right CRISPR system to designing guide ...

CRISPR functions as a programmable genetic memory system derived from bacterial immune defenses against viral infections. Guide RNA allows for rapid multiplexed targeting compared to older ...

In this tutorial, we build a complete pipeline for single-cell RNA sequencing analysis using Scanpy. We start by installing the required libraries and loading the PBMC 3k dataset, then perform quality ...

I was born in Washington, DC, in 1964, the oldest of three sisters, but the place that truly formed me as a scientist was Hilo, on the Big Island of Hawaii. Growing up there, far from the mainland ...

Abstract: RNA binding proteins (RBPs) play a crucial role in regulating biological functions through their interactions with specific RNAs, significantly impacting various life processes.

Across all domains of life, immune defenses thwart invading viruses by making it impossible for the viruses to replicate. Most known CRISPR systems target invading pathogens’ DNA and chop it up to ...
