Remodelling of RNA structures by proteins such as the DEAD-box (DDX) RNA helicases regulates gene expression at various stages. The budding yeast helicase Dhh1 and its human counterpart DDX6 are known ...

RNA vaccines are a new class of vaccines that are composed of an mRNA sequence coding for a pathogen-specific protein (antigen). Once expressed in the body, the target antigen is recognized by the ...

Scientists have long thought of DNA as an instruction manual written in the four- chemical bases—A, C, T, and G—that make up the genetic code. The prevailing belief was that by decoding these ...

A DNA sequence code critical to our understanding of how human genes are turned on and off has just been unlocked by a team of scientists. Molecular biologists refer to this code as the “human ...
