A single-stranded architecture for cotranscriptional folding of RNA nanostructures. Science , 2014; 345 (6198): 799 DOI: 10.1126/science.1253920 Cite This Page : ...

Research reveals key differences between single- and double-stranded RNA, insights that may prove useful to fields from agriculture to medicine. Messenger RNA, or mRNA, has been in the news ...

Using capillary gel electrophoresis, researchers from the National Institute of Health Sciences in Kanagawa, Japan studied the factors that optimize chain-length distribution analysis of messenger RNA ...

Not all DNA looks like the familiar twisted ladder. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes. One such ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the National Center for Genomic Analysis and the University of Adelaide ...

Scientists have may have successfully reproduced what's believed to be the first thing that ever lived on Planet ...

2. Elongation commences when RNA polymerase unwinds double-stranded DNA into two single strands. These DNA strands are used as genetic templates for RNA synthesis. As the DNA template strand moves ...

It is tiny: If you stacked molecules of RNA side by side, you could fit 50,000 of them within the breadth of a single human hair. What it lacks in size it makes up for in versatility. Because it is a ...

DNA double helix means that the two-stranded structure of DNA structure is common knowledge, RNA’s single-stranded format is not as well known. RNA can form into double-stranded structures, such as ...

RNA is similar to DNA but is usually a single strand of “letters,” or base pairs, rather than a double strand, and it typically conveys messages from DNA that instruct the body to make proteins.

RNA origami is a new method for organizing molecules on the nanoscale. Using just a single strand of RNA, many complicated shapes can be fabricated by this technique. Unlike existing methods for ...
