Swedish scientists recover RNA from a 130-year-old Tasmanian tiger, revealing gene activity and ancient viruses in extinct ...

Scientists successfully extract RNA from a 130-year-old Tasmanian tiger, thylacine, revealing how its genes functioned before its extinction.

The extraction of high‐quality RNA from plant tissues is a critical prerequisite for gene expression studies and other molecular analyses. Over the past decades, researchers have refined methods to ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For a molecule of RNA, the world is a dangerous place. Unlike DNA, which can persist for millions of years in its remarkably stable, ...

RNA is usually portrayed as a molecule that works deep inside the cell, helping to turn genetic information into proteins.

With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality of the natural ...

An innovative three-color method for capturing images of mRNA inside live mammalian cells has been developed by UMass Amherst chemists. Because RNA is both incredibly important to human life and ...

An individual’s genome is identifiable. But datasets of RNA sequences from single cells are like a blurry photocopy of the genome. The sequence numbers are small, the data are noisy, and the sequences ...

Cancers driven by hiccups in RNA processing can’t hide from our immune system, according to new work published today in Cell. A cross-institutional team Fred Hutch Cancer Center and Memorial Sloan ...

(Nanowerk News) With the long-term goal of creating living cells from non-living components, scientists in the field of synthetic biology work with RNA origami. This tool uses the multifunctionality ...
