Two molecular control factors play a decisive role in what is known as splicing, the cutting and assembly of mature messenger RNA – a prerequisite for ...

They succeeded once they were able to isolate the splicing complexes of the fungus that were in the midst of quality control ...

Alternative splicing (AS) of pre-mRNA plays a crucial role in tissue-specific gene regulation, with disease implications due to splicing defects. Predicting and manipulating AS can therefore uncover ...

Yet vaccines using the new technology of mRNA were developed by Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech in a matter of months, and were already being put into arms by the first anniversary of the pandemic.

Vaccine skeptics have long-since leveraged the rapid roll out of mRNA vaccines to add fuel to heated arguments surrounding vaccine safety. As a result, a growing share of the public is wary of ...

MRNA technology is facing growing doubts among Republicans. This is a KFF Health News story. Researchers racing to develop bird flu vaccines for humans have turned to a cutting-edge technology ...

Spliceosome structures have been investigated extensively in the past decade, but most of the studies have been restricted to a handful of model organisms. New research by Lu et al, looks outside this ...

Gene-based vaccines are those using nucleic acids like messenger RNA (mRNA), creating proteins in order to trigger an immune response. While mRNA vaccines have been in research development for decades ...
