RNA is usually portrayed as a molecule that works deep inside the cell, helping to turn genetic information into proteins.

As antibiotic-resistant infections rise and are projected to cause up to 10 million deaths per year by 2050, scientists are looking to bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, as an alternative.

To our immune system, a potentially lifesaving gene therapy can look a lot like a dangerous infection. That's because most genetic medicine uses viruses or double-stranded DNA to deliver genetic ...

A team of researchers led by University of California, Riverside biomedical scientists has identified a small, previously overlooked small RNA molecule that plays a major role in controlling the ...

As antibiotic-resistant bacteria threaten global health, Hebrew University scientists use innovative method to discover PreS, a 'secret switch' that boosts bacteria-eating viruses The post Newly ...
