NASA scientists found amino acids, key minerals, and nucleobases for DNA in samples from the OSIRIS-REx asteroid mission.

Japanese scientists detected all five nucleobases — building blocks of DNA and RNA — in samples returned from asteroid Bennu ...

The surprising paradigm shift could lead to much more protective sunscreens and effective skin treatments.

New research reveals that sunburn may be caused by RNA damage, not DNA, challenging long-held beliefs about UV exposure ...

This is where DNA and RNA epigenetics comes in: a series of mechanisms that act as "markers" on genes, to control their ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee ...

The building blocks for life, including salts, organic matter and amino acids have been found in samples returned to Earth ...

DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel motion by enzymatic RNA degradation. Essentially, chemical energy is ...

Researchers have discovered that DNA and RNA epigenetics form a complementary system that precisely regulates gene activity, ...

Researchers leverage their understanding of molecular motors to improve nanoscale artificial motors, aiming to bridge the ...

Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study reveals that RNA, another vital cellular molecule, plays a major role in triggering acute sunburn reactions.
