A virus relies on the host's translation machinery to replicate itself and become infectious. Translation efficiency ...

An mRNA therapy efficaciously corrected—in a mouse model—altered glutathione metabolism, offering a prospective avenue for treating argininosuccinic aciduria (ASA), an inherited metabolic disorder.

The United States may be losing its edge in mRNA technology­­. The technology, which powered life-saving COVID-19 vaccines and is now rocketing new cancer therapeutics forward, will soon undergo a ...

Here are two things that are true. The world needs more effective flu vaccines. And pharmaceutical companies that learned of the vaccine-making power of the messenger RNA platform during the Covid-19 ...

A research team has developed DeepCodon, a deep learning–based codon optimization tool that significantly improves heterologous protein expression in Escherichia coli while preserving functionally ...

During protein synthesis, the genetic information stored in DNA is first transcribed into mRNA. The mRNA then travels to the ribosome, where translation occurs. Here's how anticodons facilitate the ...

Messenger RNA, or mRNA, vaccines entered the public consciousness when they were introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, and both Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna used the technology in developing their ...

A trio of mRNA molecules could help guard against the harmful effects of aging on immune cells, a study in mice finds. A new ...

In a recent article published in the journal Nature, researchers used a classical concept in computational linguistics to design a new algorithm, LinearDesign, which optimized the structural stability ...

We asked experts about how the technology works, its safety and its potential in medicine. By Nina Agrawal Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has repeatedly questioned the safety of mRNA vaccines ...

Stanford scientists have uncovered how mRNA COVID-19 vaccines can very rarely trigger heart inflammation in young men — and ...
