The genetic information on DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) and translated to the amino acid sequence by transfer RNA (tRNA) on the ribosome. Modified nucleosides within RNA are involved ...

LIFE ON EARTH may have originated with DNA's cousin RNA, but how the modern world evolved from the RNA world is still mostly unknown. Now, in a new study published last week in the journal Nature, ...

Genetic information encoded in genomic DNA is transcribed to mRNAs and then the codons on mRNA are decoded by transfer RNAs (tRNAs) during protein synthesis. tRNAs deliver amino acids to ribosomes and ...

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyungsoo Park] Pharmicell announced on the 21st that it received an order worth approximately $8.53 million (about 10.2 billion KRW) for nucleosides from ThermoFisher Scientific ...

Fluorescent nucleosides, in which a natural nucleobase is replaced by a luminescent analogue, have emerged as indispensable tools for elucidating the structure, dynamics and interactions of nucleic ...

Decades of scientific progress in understanding the root cause of many formerly intractable diseases has opened up new treatment options, namely through RNA-based therapies. This second wave of ...

Throughout history, many viral diseases have proven difficult to treat. However, recent research into synthetic drugs has given medical science powerful new tools to combat these pathogens. One ...

In a recent review published in Nature Medicine, researchers presented challenges related to the clinical translation of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) technology, recent innovations, and future ...

When people eat, they ingest the nucleic acids that reside in all living things. The compounds in these acids could inhibit the growth of cancer cells, according to findings published in PLOS ONE by ...
