Roche to launch SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Antigen Test in countries accepting CE mark, allowing fast triage decisions at point of care

The Pharma Data

In general, antigen tests have a high specificity, though are not as sensitive as molecular tests that amplify the target viral DNA or RNA sequence in order to generate a quantifiable signal to indicate the presence of the virus in a sample.

TACACICLIB, AUR-102, AURIGENE

New Drug Approvals

CDK7 also plays a role in transcription and possibly in DNA repair. The trimeric Cak complex CDK7/CyclinH/MATl is also a component of TFIIH, the general transcription/DNA repair factor IIH (Morgan, DO., As a TFIIH subunit, CDK7 phosphorylates the CTD (Carboxy-Terminal-Domain) of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (pol II).

Experimental Myotonic Dystrophy Treatment Teams Monoclonal Antibody and siRNA

PLOS: DNA Science

In these 50 or so conditions, symptoms may appear earlier and worsen from generation to generation, as the mutant gene grows, adding copies of a 3- or 4-base DNA sequence. Now Avidity Biosciences has developed a candidate drug that weds a monoclonal antibody (MAb) to a short piece of RNA – a small interfering RNA (siRNA).

Cave Coronavirus in Wuhan Lab Seeded COVID – The Truth Has Always Been Out There, in the Genetics

PLOS: DNA Science

Experiments at the Wuhan facility were done at the lowest two of the four standard biosafety levels, which were established at the dawn of recombinant DNA research in the 1970s. The Likely Predecessor of SARS-CoV-2 – From my Past Blog Posts I wrote 100+ DNA Science blog posts during the pandemic about the virus.

A Molecular Portrait of ALS and FTD

Drug Target Review

The specific proteins found in these aggregates can vary, but approximately 95 percent of ALS patients and 50 percent of FTD patients develop aggregates containing the TDP-43 protein (short for tar DNA binding protein 43). 14 TDP-43 is a DNA and RNA binding protein that regulates the expression and splicing of several target transcripts.
