－実験室での生命誕生過程の再現に向けて－ 理化学研究所（理研）生命機能科学研究センター高機能生体分子開発チームの李佩瑩（リ・ペエイ）研究員、田上俊輔チームリーダーらの国際共同研究チームは、正電荷を持つペプチド[1] 凝集体がRNA[2] を吸着し ...

RNA modifications play crucial roles in gene regulation, cellular function and the response to environmental stimuli. However, the detection and characterization of these modifications remain ...

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 ...

Contrary to historic understanding of RNA’s longevity in cells, some RNAs can persist in cells throughout the life of an organism. Lead authors, Martin Hetzer, PhD, president of the Institute of ...

All starting from the same DNA, neurons ultimately take on individual characteristics in the brain and body. Differences in ...

RNA in cells performs an astounding number of functions. Messenger RNA carries the sequences of active genes to cellular machinery that turns it into proteins. And transfer RNA molecules are an ...

CEATEC 2025 featured the usual lineup of AI demos, service robots, and experimental interfaces. But inside Hall 4, a quieter, lab-style booth ...

A chemical modification in the HIV-1 RNA genome whose function has been a matter of scientific debate is now confirmed to be key to the virus's ability to survive and thrive after infecting host cells ...

A research team at Florida State University's Institute of Molecular Biophysics and Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry ...

A research team from the University of Cologne and collaborators has now shown that RNA interference, or RNAi for short, which is known to be a viral defense mechanism, also prevents the ...
