In a recent study published in the journal Nature Methods, a group of researchers developed a novel method called Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) High-Order Folding Prediction Plus (RhoFold+). This deep ...

The technology, called the Viral-Engineered RNA-based Activation System (VERAS), hijacks the virus’s own replication machinery to switch on reporter or therapeutic genes precisely in infected cells.

Example of an RNA thermometer in the gene lpxP, identified in E. coli and conserved across various bacterial species. On the left, the OFF conformation. The Ribosome Binding Site (RBS, green) is ...

A newly revealed “aging cliff” in sperm RNA marks a conserved molecular transition from youth to later life, offering fresh insight into how a father’s age may influence the earliest stages of ...

Apart from carrying the information to encode proteins in, RNA molecules can adopt intricate 2D and 3D structures. Specifically, the same RNA molecule can switch between ON and OFF structures, ...
