RNA therapeutics target translation rather than DNA, aiming to correct shared protein production errors. By enabling cells to read through premature stop codons, engineered tRNAs could restore ...
With big pharma signalling interest in novel RNA-targeted approaches, the term “druggable” is being redefined as technology advances.
Researchers develop a single genome-editing strategy to treat multiple disorders caused by nonsense mutations, promising efficient and cost-effective therapies.
Replication-dependent histone mRNAs, which encode the most abundant histone proteins, are the only known cellular mRNAs that are not polyadenylated. Instead they end in a conserved stem–loop that ...
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a translation-coupled mechanism that eliminates mRNAs containing premature translation-termination codons (PTCs). In mammalian cells, NMD is also linked to ...
A federal judge on Monday indefinitely postponed the termination of protected immigration status for hundreds of thousands of Haitians in the United States. The order from U.S. District Judge Ana C.
Mitochondria possess their own mRNA translation system, mediated by specialized mitoribosomes. Dysregulation of mitochondrial translation disrupts metabolic homeostasis and is linked to various ...
Julia Kagan is a financial/consumer journalist and former senior editor, personal finance, of Investopedia. Dr. Ramos works with leadership teams to hire talent that aligns with business strategies, ...
