A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing is a ...

Scientists at Baidu Research's California branch said the software can design mRNA sequences with more intricate shapes and structures than those found in current vaccines, allowing the genetic ...

Neurons balance energy efficiency by regulating protein synthesis based on molecular properties like stability and size.

Proteins are built from smaller units called amino acids, which are specified by three-nucleotide mRNA sequences called ... three hairpin loops that form the shape of a three-leafed clover.

While some of the initial zeal around localized vaccine production in Africa has waned since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, efforts to bolster the continent’s immunization autonomy—especially | ...
