A new method to detect ribonucleic acid (RNA) without needing any complex lab procedures or heating equipment has been developed by researchers at UConn Health. Published in Nature Communications, ...

When RNA molecules are synthesized by cells — a critical process in the creation of proteins and other cellular functions — they typically undergo a series of “folding” events that determine their ...

The answer depends on the questions you’re trying to answer, as well as the origin, quantity, and quality of your samples. In this article, we’ll briefly discuss several RNA-seq workflows, how they ...

Researchers at University Medical Center Utrecht have uncovered a previously underappreciated mechanism that helps immune ...

A team of researchers at IOCB Prague led by Prof. Michal Hocek has developed a novel method for preparing ribonucleic acid (RNA) containing modified bases. Innovative use of engineered DNA polymerases ...

SINGAPORE – Researchers from A*STAR Genome Institute of Singapore (A*STAR GIS) have developed a new method, called ‘sm-PORE-cupine’, to study individual RNA molecules and reveal how their structures ...

RNA sequencing enables sensitive fusion detection and direct assessment of transcript-level disruption caused by splicing mutations. In the study, "Clinical utility of targeted RNA sequencing in ...

This approach holds promise for treating a wide range of diseases, from cancers and genetic disorders to viral infections. Unlike traditional drugs that act on proteins after they’re made, RNA ...
