Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a translation-dependent mechanism of RNA decay that probably evolved to eliminate abnormal transcripts that are a consequence of routine abnormalities in gene ...

It took a global pandemic, but the critical role of messenger RNA in all of life’s functions has taken center stage in the past year with the successful rollout of mRNA vaccines to combat the SARS-Cov ...

South Korean researchers have, for the first time in the world, uncovered how messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines enter human cells, function inside the body, and are blocked by certain ...

Researchers in Yale’s Gilbert lab published research on mRNA nucleotide modifications and ribosome recruitment, winning a $1.7 million grant from Pfizer. A research lab at Yale led by Wendy Gilbert, ...

Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a natural molecule found in all our cells. There are many types of RNA, each with distinct functions. As the name implies, mRNA acts as an important messenger in human cells.
