Self-building RNA strand may expose how life on Earth truly began
Two separate laboratory breakthroughs have produced RNA molecules that can build copies of themselves or assemble functional structures without any help from proteins or DNA. These results offer the ...
Reduce amplification bias caused by variable miRNA abundance using automated PCR normalization for NEXTFLEX small RNA sequencing workflows.
These random molecules were fed a collection of three-base-long RNAs, each linked to a chemical tag. The idea was that if a molecule is capable of ligating one of these short RNA fragments to itself, ...
Although there are striking differences between the cells that make up your eyes, kidneys, brain and toes, the DNA blueprint ...
In the quest for RNA biomarkers indicative of fruit maturity, a cost-effective, reliable workflow is crucial. Accurate harvest timing is critical for shelf life and apple quality, but at present, ...
Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.

RNA strand that nearly self-replicates could unlock life’s origin
A 45-nucleotide strand of RNA can now synthesize both its mirror-image complement and a copy of itself, bringing scientists ...
A strand of RNA just 45 nucleotides long has been discovered to perform two key reactions required for self-replication. The ...
Scientists discover QT45, a self-replicating RNA molecule, offering insights into the origins of life on Earth.
