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 ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common adult-onset form 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, ...

Researchers identify a shared RNA-protein interaction that could lead to broad-spectrum antiviral treatments for enteroviruses ...

Ribonucleic acid, also called RNA, is a molecule present in all living cells. It plays a critical role in transmitting genetic instructions from DNA and creating proteins. With the power to execute a ...
