Scientists use RNA origami to fold biomolecules into nanotubes, forming cytoskeleton-like structures, advancing synthetic biology toward artificial cells.

For discussion questions and lesson plans, go to the RNA Lab collection on PBS LearningMedia. The standards-based NOVA RNA Lab allows users to explore the science of RNA and learn how to design ...

José Assouline, a neurobiologist and AIDS researcher at the University of Iowa College of Medicine, has spent several years creating the animations ... of new viral RNA strands (Viral Gene ...

What's the difference between mRNA and pre-mRNA? It's all about splicing of introns. See how one RNA sequence can exist in nearly 40,000 different forms. Next, the snRNPs U2 and U4/U6 appear to ...

Transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) is a type of RNA molecule that helps decode a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence into a protein. tRNAs function at specific sites in the ribosome during translation ...
