How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins? The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA. But ...

Leveraging its integrated "design-synthesis-quality control" system, Creative Biolabs is overcoming bottlenecks in mRNA ...

AI can help protein engineers optimize the transcription enzymes used to make mRNA-based vaccines and therapeutics, say the authors of a new study.

Imagine a cancer treatment that precisely targets malignant cells, leaving healthy ones untouched. Consider, also, a cancer treatment that corrects abnormal protein synthesis to produce healthy ...

In recent years, mRNA technology enabled the rapid development of vaccines to fight COVID-19, saving millions of lives. That same mRNA-powered approach to medicine—in which synthetic mRNA is ...

Ethris GmbH, a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering next-generation RNA therapeutics and vaccines, and the German Center for Infection Research (Deutsches Zentrum für Infektionsforschung, ...

Some genetic mutations that are expected to completely stop a gene from working surprisingly cause only mild or even no symptoms. Researchers in previous studies have discovered one reason why: cells ...

mRNA sequences affect translation efficiency (IMAGE) University of Texas at Austin Caption Subtle differences in an mRNA sequence enables a ribosome to produce more or less of a certain protein. A new ...

We asked experts about how the technology works, its safety and its potential in medicine. By Nina Agrawal Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has repeatedly questioned the safety of mRNA vaccines ...
