higher-order structures obtained through complementary base-pair folding. From the RNA Tie Club to today, the more scientists have studied RNA, the more surprises they have uncovered. New ...

Each ribonucleotide base consists of a ribose sugar ... rather than being identical copies of the template. RNA is then translated into proteins by structures called ribosomes.

Non-Watson-Crick base pairs can play important roles in RNA secondary structure, protein-nucleic acid interactions, and genetic recoding events. The Role of Base Pairs in Genetics Base pairs play a ...

Researchers have now uncovered the 3D structure of the RNA enzyme SAMURI. Their study provides insights into the development of ribozymes and the evolution of catalytically active RNA. Researchers ...

Overview of RNA repair – There is an emerging appreciation of the existence of “RNA repair” pathways that rely on RNA ligases to maintain or manipulate RNA structure in response to purposeful RNA ...

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] ...

The chemical structure of uracil ... RNA-based therapies, such as small interfering RNA (siRNA) and antisense oligonucleotide (ASOs), rely on the specific base-pairing properties of uracil to target ...
