The next generation of self-replicating mRNA vaccines could have fewer side effects such as fever, headache and fatigue. This would partly result from the application of artificial intelligence in ...

RNA is thought to have sparked the origin of life by self-copying. Researchers reveal the atomic structure of an "RNA copy machine". This breakthrough sheds light on a primordial RNA world and fuels ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are increasingly being applied in the field of RNA biology. These methods are used to predict RNA structures, interactions with proteins and small ...

RNA is a central biological macromolecule, now widely harnessed in medicine and nanotechnology. Like proteins, RNA function often depends on its precise three-dimensional structure. A recent study ...

(Nanowerk News) The RNA molecule is commonly recognized as messenger between DNA and protein, but it can also be folded into intricate molecular machines. An example of a naturally occurring RNA ...

Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.

Researchers have visualized how a large RNA molecule assembles itself into a functional machine. RNA is a central biological macromolecule, now widely harnessed in medicine and nanotechnology. Like ...

A mysterious RNA found in breast cancer led scientists to uncover an entire hidden class of cancer-specific RNAs across ...
