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

For decades, we’ve believed the bright redness of sunburn — along with its irritating sting and peeling skin — was the result ...

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

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

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 ...

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

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 ...

Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study by the University of Copenhagen and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, reveals that RNA, another ...

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.
