Research teams across Canada are now building on homegrown innovation to expand the potential of RNA vaccines beyond ...

Scientists develop RNA-based technology to combat plant viruses, enhancing crop immunity and reducing losses worldwide.

However, the in vitro transcription (IVT) process, which is used to synthesize mRNA, can result in the generation of a byproduct, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). This can trigger innate immune activation ...

A biological pesticide with no withholding period, which can evolve to stop future resistance seems almost too good to be true for producers. Eliza is a journalist based in Cowra, in the state's ...

This study presents an important finding on the molecular mechanism for transduction of environmentally induced polyphenism. The evidence supporting the claims of the author is solid. This paper would ...

Endogenous retroviruses, ancient viruses embedded throughout mammalian genomes, might help RNA viruses permanently integrate into the genomes of their hosts ...

conducted a ground-breaking study on an mRNA vaccine (RV021) encoding the rabies virus glycoprotein ... and contaminants such as double-stranded RNA. Additionally, they highlight the persistence of ...

One aspect that signals pandemic potential in a virus is having an RNA, rather than DNA, genome. That’s because the process of copying RNA typically doesn’t include a proofreader like DNA replication ...

Picobirnaviruses (PBVs) are small non-enveloped bisegmented double-stranded RNA viruses found in human and a wide variety of mammals and birds. Since its first discovery in fecal samples of humans and ...
