Leveraging its integrated "design-synthesis-quality control" system, Creative Biolabs is overcoming bottlenecks in mRNA ...

The clinical potential of mRNA was revealed with COVID-19 vaccines, but that was just the beginning. “Today, this Nobel prize–winning technology is being leveraged for many therapeutic applications, ...

How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins? The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA. But ...

This image illustrates the process of gene transcription within a cell. The DNA double helix unwinds to expose a specific sequence, allowing RNA polymerase to synthesize a complementary pre-mRNA ...

The discovery of chemical modifications to overcome mRNA’s instability and immunotoxicity have enabled mRNA therapeutics to evolve dramatically, reaching clinical trials and the forefront of modern ...

The diagram illustrates the key stages of protein synthesis in a eukaryotic cell. It begins with transcription to produce pre-mRNA in the nucleus (1), followed by post-transcriptional modification (2) ...

As the name suggests, nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter at the nanoscale and is involved with creating new structures, materials and products. Nanotechnology has touched and revolutionized ...

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 ...

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said this week that he's pulling the plug on nearly $500 million in funding for the development of mRNA vaccines. Here's how they work.

Most vaccines contain an infectious pathogen or a part of it, but mRNA vaccines deliver the genetic instructions for our cells to make viral or bacterial proteins themselves. Our immune system ...
