University of Queensland research has revealed that double-stranded RNA-based biopesticides (dsRNA) sprayed on plant leaves ...

Multiple forms of double-stranded RNA (blue, magenta, orange structures) cross cell membranes with the help of a conserved protein located in novel sites (colored by depth) throughout the roundworm's ...

Researchers have successfully shown a technology developed at the University of Queensland can improve the efficacy of a chemical-free flystrike treatment for sheep. The technology, BenPol, addresses ...

Two separate laboratory breakthroughs have produced RNA molecules that can build copies of themselves or assemble functional structures without any help from proteins or DNA. These results offer the ...

Life may have begun when RNA molecules began to replicate themselves, and now we’ve finally found an RNA molecule that is very close to being able to do this ...

RNA-based medicines are one of the most promising ways to fight human disease, as demonstrated by the recent successes of RNA vaccines and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) therapies. But while health care ...

There are many molecules with therapeutic potential, but it can be a challenge to deliver them to the right places at the right times. RNA is one such molecule; the sequences for different proteins ...

By Hugo Francisco de Souza Emerging research suggests reversible RNA editing mechanisms may influence heart disease biology while opening new avenues for biomarkers and next-generation cardiovascular ...

A CHEMICAL-FREE alternative to surgical mulesing of sheep is closer with University of Queensland development of technology that improves the efficacy of treatments to hinder and kill blowfly ...

Although there are striking differences between the cells that make up your eyes, kidneys, brain and toes, the DNA blueprint ...
