A strategy that analyzes the structural properties of RNA could help identify regions that are promising targets for antiviral drugs.

RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a nucleic acid polymer where the carbohydrate is ribose. RNA is generally single-stranded, as DNA is transcribed by RNA polymerases into mRNA (messenger RNA), which is ...

Wave claims this is the first clinical data with a therapeutic RNA-editing drug in humans, an achievement that boosted its stock, even as the news also emerged that Takeda had pulled out of a ...

This article makes a valuable contribution to the field by uncovering a molecular mechanism for miRNA intracellular retention, mediated by the interaction of PCBP2, SYNCRIP, and specific miRNA motifs.
