For over a century, scientists have analyzed the vast microbial world within the human body. They’ve found bacteria, fungi, ...

Two human cells making RNA made visible by the bioluminescent lantern in pink (middle image). On the left, the same cells ...

In a quest to understand complex speech, scientists inserted what's been dubbed a human “language gene” into mice. Remarkably ...

Researchers from SRM Institute of Science and Technology, led by Dr. KN Aruljothi, have published a study in ExRNA highlighting the role of exosomal RNA (exRNA) in head and neck cancers (HNCs).

Additionally, they note connections between TIGR-Tas systems and certain RNA-processing proteins in human cells. "I think there's more there to study in terms of what some of those relationships ...

a global project that aims to map all the cells in the human body. The researchers built this map using single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA seq), which measures which genes are active and to what ...

In the microscopic world of bacteria, gene transfer is a powerful mechanism that can alter cellular function, drive ...

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...

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 ...

A new review article highlights the transformative role of circular RNA (circRNA) in cancer, revealing its potential as both a key player in tumor biology and a promising avenue for future therapies.
