Our DNA is constantly under threat — from cell division errors to external factors like sunlight and smoking. Fortunately, cells have intricate repair mechanisms to counteract this damage. Scientists have uncovered a surprising role played by long non-coding RNA,

A vast search of natural diversity has led scientists at MIT's McGovern Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard to uncover ancient systems with the potential to expand the genome-editing toolbox.

RNA sequencing has emerged as a powerful supplement to DNA sequencing for Mendelian disease diagnosis, but clinical translation of diagnostic RNA-seq has not been widely achieved. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine's Medical Genetics and Multiomics Laboratory have published the clinical validation of the first RNA sequencing test for diagnostic whole-transcriptome analysis for genetic disorders.

A study originally focusing on cancer has shown that amyloids — proteins typically linked to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s — influence inherited traits. The discovery could, say the authors,

CRISPR technology offers innovative solutions for pandemic preparedness, enhancing diagnostics, antiviral therapies, and vaccine development in public health.

With the modality now in early clinical trials, experts say more efficiency, broader editing capabilities and delivery breakthroughs are needed to propel RNA editing to the next stage.

Maravai LifeSciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRVI), a global provider of life science reagents and services to researchers and biotech innovators, announced today that it has completed its previously announced acquisition of Officinae Bio’s DNA and RNA business.
