DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel ...

New research reveals that sunburn’s acute effects, like inflammation and cell death, are triggered by RNA damage rather than ...

The surprising paradigm shift could lead to much more protective sunscreens and effective skin treatments.

DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel motion by enzymatic RNA degradation. Essentially, chemical energy is ...

We have all been told to avoid direct sunlight between 12 noon and 3 p.m., seek out shade and put on sunscreen and a hat.

Researchers have discovered that DNA and RNA epigenetics form a complementary system that precisely regulates gene activity, ...

Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study reveals that RNA, another vital cellular molecule, plays a major role in triggering acute sunburn reactions.

Researchers leverage their understanding of molecular motors to improve nanoscale artificial motors, aiming to bridge the ...

This is where DNA and RNA epigenetics comes in: a series of mechanisms that act as "markers" on genes, to control their ...

New research from the University of Copenhagen and NTU Singapore reveals that RNA damage, rather than DNA, plays a primary ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee ...

Study reveals UV radiation damages RNA, not DNA, triggering skin inflammation and cell death through ribotoxic stress response.
