RNA interference is a natural mechanism for living cells to control whether specific genes are being used or not.

Northwestern Medicine scientists have, for the first time, described the underlying mechanisms that regulate how cells rapidly change gene expression in response to hypoxia, a key feature of many ...

Find out what Novartis' pipeline strategy since it spun off its biosimilars and generics business Sandoz, and engage in ...

As you all know, Alnylam is pioneering an entirely new class of medicines to treat human disease. This generational technology leverages the mechanism of RNA interference, a natural process of gene ...

The reefs scattered throughout the tropics arose only after algae took up full-time residence in coral cells, supplying corals with abundant food and enabling them to build extensive shallow-water ...

RNA research has taken a strange, non-linear path. For decades, RNA was treated as an afterthought: Salieri to DNA’s Mozart. DNA contained the all-important code, whereas RNA was merely machinery that ...

Huntington’s disease (HD) is caused by a CAG repeat expansion in exon 1 of the HTT gene, producing a huntingtin protein with an elongated polyglutamine ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have identified a compound that blocks the aggregation of GRK2, a kinase protein whose clumping inside neurons drives mitochondrial damage and accelerates cell death in ...
