Heidelberg biochemists and structural biologists from Shanghai unravel the roles of two key regulatory factors in mRNA ...

Alternative splicing (AS) of pre-mRNA plays a crucial role in tissue-specific gene regulation, with disease implications due to splicing defects. Predicting and manipulating AS can therefore uncover ...

What's the difference between mRNA and pre-mRNA? It's all about splicing of introns. See how one RNA sequence can exist in nearly 40,000 different forms. Next, the snRNPs U2 and U4/U6 appear to ...

Alternative RNA splicing is like a movie editor cutting and rearranging scenes from the same footage to create different versions of a film. By selecting which scenes to keep and which to leave out, ...

Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed the first-ever method of detecting ribonucleic acid, or RNA, ...

The discovery could pave the way for a groundbreaking RNA-based multi-cancer treatment. Alternative RNA splicing functions ...

Two molecular control factors play a decisive role in what is known as splicing, the cutting and assembly of mature messenger ...

Gliomas, a type of brain tumor, are notoriously difficult to treat due to their complex genetic makeup and ability to evade immune responses. In a recent study published in Nature, a research team ...

RNA therapeutics market is expanding, driven by advancements in gene therapy, personalized medicine, and RNA-based drug delivery, along with rising research in mRNA vaccines, antisense ...

ORNL scientists created a biosensor technology that lets researchers visualize and track RNA activity in living plants, using ...

The realization that most human genes generate multiple mRNAs encoding divergent protein isoforms via alternative splicing and polyadenylation has revealed extensive regulation that remains to be ...
