Two scientists who discovered a type of RNA molecule that helps control the activity of genes have won the 2024 Nobel Prize ...

These vaccines work by inserting a recipe into the body — the mRNA strand — that teaches cells to build a piece of the targeted virus that the body’s immune system gears up to attack.

Victor Ambros & Gary Ruvkun won the prize Monday. MicroRNAs are a class of tiny, non-coding RNAs that regulate gene activity. A small worm was the silent hero behind the milestone.

The genome inside each of our cells is modelled by tension and torsion — due in part to the activity of proteins that compact, loop, wrap and untwist ...

Formamide interferes with these hydrogen bonds, leading to destabilization of the helical structure of the mRNA, causing denaturation or separation of the strands. Without strand formation ...

Discover Alnylam Pharmaceuticals' groundbreaking patent for RNAi agents targeting the Serpina1 gene, offering innovative treatments for liver disorders and beyond.

And they planned to target plenty of other viruses beyond COVID. These vaccines work by inserting a recipe into the body — the mRNA strand — that teaches cells to build a piece of the targeted virus ...
