Prior to 2015, I had a casual relationship, at best, with targeting RNA. Targeting RNA is a Whole New World Then in 2015, I became smitten and eloped with RNA, setting out to build a company devoted to bringing to bear industrial drug discovery concepts and methods on a new problem of drugging RNA with small molecules.

In a previous study, we showed that these peptides decorate all cellular RNAs and thus impair the binding of RNA-binding proteins to RNA. For his postdoctoral stay he joined the group of André Nussenzweig, where he started to work on DNA repair, particularly focusing on the role of histone H2AX.

Collecting the Numbers We can easily measure some things in biology yet struggle to measure others. Thanks to decades of progress in molecular sequencing technologies, it is simple to read out the order of nucleotides in a DNA sequence, for example, or to quantify messenger RNAs as they are made by a cell.

But now, by studying DNA extracted from microbes in the blood of almost 10,000 healthy people, this paper shows that there is no such thing.

Viral vectors, such as adeno-associated viruses (AAVs), are commonly used to deliver therapeutic genes to cardiac cells. RNA-based therapies, including mRNA and RNA interference (RNAi), are being explored to modulate gene expression in heart cells.

By Allessandra DiCorato October 11, 2023 In 2011, Robert Manguso was working in a cell biology lab when his mother was diagnosed with Merkel cell carcinoma, a rare and aggressive skin cancer. When I began my PhD I completely switched my focus, and I haven’t looked back,” said Manguso.

Yeast die for two reasons: Either their nucleolus (where the DNA is kept) degrades and dies, or their mitochondria whimpers out and they stop making energy. kilobases” of DNA into a plant genome.
