Fungal infections are on the rise globally. According to a study by the Manchester Fungal Infection Group, in 2022, ...

The success of COVID-19 vaccines has highlighted the potential of mRNA-based therapies, which selectively manipulate how genes relay a function. RNA interference (RNAi), meanwhile, is a natural ...

1 This means miRNA guides can target any mRNA with homology to its seed region, even if the rest of the sequence is not a match. This promiscuous binding activity means that miRNA can act on many ...

Small interfering RNA are double-stranded RNA molecules most notably involved in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway where they interfere with gene expression by targeting specific mRNA for ...

siRNAs are 21-25 nucleotide dsRNA molecules that are perfectly complementary to their target mRNA. They are derived from long dsRNA precursors, which can be produced endogenously or introduced ...

A new study conducted by researchers at Hokkaido University has unveiled a novel class of zwitterionic phospholipids capable ...

RNAi (RNA interference) is a biological process in which RNA molecules—microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA)—inhibit gene expression, typically by binding to messenger RNA (mRNA ...

National Institutes of Health officials have urged scientists to remove all references to mRNA vaccine technology from their grant applications, two researchers said, in a move that signaled the ...
