Like tiny superheroes, small, naturally occurring segments of RNA can block multiple molecular paths that cancer cells use to ...

Scientists profiling small non-coding RNAs in postmortem brain tissue from people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder ...

The function of non-coding RNA in the cell has long been a mystery to researchers. Unlike coding RNA, non-coding RNA does not produce proteins—yet it exists in large quantities. A research team from ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York have identified and described a previously unknown ...

When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...

Terc-53 functions as a molecular scaffold bringing together Hmmr and Trim25, accelerating Hmmr’s ubiquitination-mediated degradation, which consequently leads to neuroinflammation and cognition ...

To understand the human genome, scientists focused on protein-coding genes and their functions for decades. This has given us ...

A research team led by scientists at Columbia’s Zuckerman Institute used techniques including single cell genomics, to describe a previously undetected RNA-mediated mechanism in mice that could ...

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a genetic eye disorder affecting around one in 5,000 people worldwide. It typically begins with night blindness in youth and progresses to tunnel vision as ...
