A study reveals DNA and RNA epigenetics work together as a complementary system for precise gene regulation, crucial for cell ...

Samples contain all five nucleobases of DNA and RNA, supporting theory that asteroids may have seeded Earth with life's ...

Japanese scientists detected all five nucleobases — building blocks of DNA and RNA — in samples returned from asteroid Bennu ...

All five nucleobases that make up DNA and RNA have now been detected in meteorite samples ... as terrestrial soil and other environments also contain nucleotide bases. “I think [the researchers] ...

“RNA interference is a well-known type of gene regulation in which cells can turn down the expression of a gene by expressing a small RNA that can base pair with the RNA of the target gene.

RNA is formed by linking molecules of ribose (a monosaccharide) with phosphate groups that bind to four types of nitrogenous ...

Asteroids, small airless bodies within the inner solar system, are theorized to have contributed water and chemical building blocks of life to Earth billions of years ago. Although meteorites on Earth ...

Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study reveals that RNA, another vital cellular molecule, plays a major role in triggering acute sunburn reactions.
