Antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections like human metapneumovirus (HMPV). HMPV affects the respiratory system, and antibiotics, designed ...

Luckily, when an organism is young, the nucleolus is relatively small, and a new study (conducted by scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine in New York and published in the journal Nature Aging) shows ...

Amid the outbreak of human metapneumovirus (HMPV0 virus) in China, countries worldwide have increased their surveillance.

Researchers from Weill Cornell Medical School (New York, USA) have found a "mortality timer" in the human body. They claim ...

A new study conducted at the Scojen Institute for Synthetic Biology at Reichman University's Dina Recanati School of Medicine ...

Imagine you're a scientist, tasked with the challenge of rapidly producing large quantities of high-quality messenger RNA (mRNA) for use in cutting-edge medical treatments. Where do you even start?

A new study has identified one of the reasons why cancer frequently spreads from elsewhere in the body to the lungs: an amino ...

Smaller nucleoli slow aging, acting as a "mortality timer," while larger nucleoli lead to cell death by destabilizing rDNA. The secret to cellular youth may lie in maintaining a small nucleolus—a ...

A virus that infects ocean phytoplankton was found to encode a ribosomal protein, a first for eukaryotic viruses. Researchers ...

These chemical marks influence RNA functions, including their stability and ability to produce proteins. In the case of ribosomes, these modifications, called epitranscriptomic marks, vary depending ...

RNA, or ribonucleic acid, is a vital molecule that plays several important roles in all living cells. Think of it as the messenger that helps turn the genetic instructions stored in DNA into the ...
