Major Paradigm Shift for our DNA
A fundamental shift in the way biologists view and understand how our genetic code works is underway. This comes a few decades after molecular biologists first produced a coherent model for how genes are...

Can RNA Turn Genes On?
"This week, more than 700 scientists have flocked to the ski resort of Keystone, Colorado, for five days. But it's not the snow that's brought them together. Rather, it's something they find much more exciting: RNA--a tiny cousin of DNA that may be the key to developing...Discovery may herald new RNA therapeutics
Very recently in the Journal Nature...British scientists have taken an important step toward preventing tumor growth by finding a way of switching off a gene involved in cell division. The Oxford University researchers say the mechanism involves a form of ribonucleic acid, or...Scientists discover new class of RNA
The last few years have been very good to ribonucleic acid (RNA). Decades after DNA took biology by storm, RNA was considered little more than a link in a chain--no doubt a necessary link, but one that, by itself,...Masturbation Is Murder
