To overcome these limitations, the research team developed a "targeted RNA acetylation system (dCas13-eNAT10)" by combining Cas13, gene scissors that precisely target desired RNA, with a hyperactive ...

Researchers at Umeå University show that the protein METTL3 helps breast cancer cells spread. By regulating the release of ...

A Northwestern Medicine study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation has uncovered a connection between a well-known cancer-related protein and a major RNA modification process, which may ...

RNA plays critical roles in nearly all biological processes, but current methods for sequencing RNA are significantly limited. This is partially because RNA molecules are chemically modified within ...

RNA interference is a natural mechanism for living cells to control whether specific genes are being used. Crowned with the ...

A new tool called SigRM helps researchers study RNA modifications in individual cells, improving our understanding of how genes are regulated. Researchers have developed a new tool that will help ...

Cancer, a disease with global impact, is intricately linked to dysregulated gene expression, which is influenced by both genetic mutations and epigenetic changes, including RNA modifications. A ...

A new perspective on gut immunity is highlighting the powerful role of RNA modifications in shaping how the body maintains balance in the digestive system. At the center of this emerging view are ...
