To build proteins, the cell makes a copy of DNA, called mRNA. Then, another molecule called a ribosome reads the mRNA, translating it into protein. But this step has been a visual mystery: scientists ...

LMU researchers have investigated how cationic polymers organize on a molecular level when transporting RNA drugs.

The central dogma of biology defines the flow of genetic information: It describes how proteins are made from mRNA templates, ...

Prof. Leslie Leiserowitz first became intrigued by malaria when he was a young boy in South Africa. His father, who scouted ...

Bilirubin, the byproduct of hemoprotein breakdown, particularly hemoglobin, is a critical marker in diagnosing, prognosing, and managing liver diseases. Findings indicate younger-onset type 2 ...

All four sickle cell disease patients in the efficacy cohort had fetal hemoglobin levels above Beam’s target—and the result achieved by Vertex’s rival therapy—but one patient died ...
