Explore RNA interference methods, comparing siRNA and shRNA for gene knockdown, their mechanisms, advantages, and ...

Distinct patterns of SARS-CoV-2 viral dynamics in saliva reveal heterogeneity that cannot be sufficiently explained by conventional clinical characteristics or microRNA profiles alone.

Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.

Restricted access to genome-editing technologies poses serious challenges for countries like India that urgently need such ...

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases. Until now, the genetic basis ...

Developers are navigating confusing gaps between expectation and reality. So are the rest of us. Depending who you ask, AI-powered coding is either giving software developers an unprecedented ...

In RNA molecules, the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) is located directly upstream of the start codon and plays a crucial role in post-transcriptional regulation by controlling RNA stability, cellular ...

EMBL scientists created SDR-seq, a tool for single-cell DNA-RNA-sequencing that studies both DNA and RNA simultaneously, linking coding and non-coding genetic variants to gene expression in the same ...

Over a decade after introducing students to the fundamentals of computer science through its Hour of Code campaign, education nonprofit Code.org is broadening its reach with a new program that bridges ...

The high incidence and mortality rates of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases make them a significant global health challenge. Antiplatelet drugs play a central role in the prevention and ...

The non-coding genome, once dismissed as "junk DNA", is now recognized as a fundamental regulator of gene expression and a key player in understanding complex diseases. Following the landmark ...
