A team led by Dr. Eddie Imada, assistant professor of research in pathology and laboratory medicine, has been awarded a three-year, $1.5 million United States Department of Defense grant for research ...

In a new study, scientists at The Wistar Institute report the first direct evidence that RNA editing is essential to mammalian embryo development. RNA editing is a normal but not yet fully understood ...

Chloroplast gene expression is governed by a sophisticated network of nuclear‐ and plastid‐encoded factors that integrate transcription, RNA processing and translation. Central to this process is the ...

Bodybuilders and cellular mechanisms agree generating protein is a heavy lift. To complete the task, cells rely on complexes called spliceosomes. These molecular machines snip extra bits out of our ...

Over the last few years, scientists and entrepreneurs have flocked to developing medicines that target RNA, the genetic blueprint that cells in our bodies use to make proteins. RNA has been in the ...

Molecular biologists have long believed that the beginning of a gene launched the process of transcription—the process by ...

It's no secret that we need new ways to treat and detect disease, including cancer. Specifically, we need better biomarkers ...

In 2018, the RNA Society endorsed Aug. 1 as annual World RNA Day, and depending on when you’re reading this article, the anniversary of that day is either upon you now or has likely passed you by ...
