In a small study, patients with the syndrome were more likely to experience reactivation of Epstein-Barr virus and high ...

Some muscle cells take the mRNA instructions in the vaccine and make a harmless piece of a protein called a spike protein. This protein is found on the outside of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes ...

Penn researchers are developing new treatments using mRNA technology to combat a range of diseases, namely celiac disease ...

Russian mRNA cancer 'vaccine' shows promise in pre-clinical trials, part of growing immunotherapy trend in cancer treatment.

This portion of mRNA is located between the first nucleotide that is transcribed and the start codon (AUG) of the coding region, and it does not affect the sequence of amino acids in a protein ...

Leftover drops in vials of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine allowed a group of researchers from Stanford University to determine the sequence of the mRNA for SARS-CoV-2’s spike protein that is used in the ...

in which a copy of the viral mRNA that encodes a viral protein, such as the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, is used to trigger a long-lasting immune response. One of the rare complications of the COVID ...

mRNA stability can be rapidly modulated to alter the expression of specific genes thereby providing flexibility in effecting changes in patterns of protein synthesis. An evolutionarily conserved ...

And studies with prior vaccines at the U.S. National Institutes of Health showed how to stabilize the coronavirus spike protein that the new mRNA shots needed to deliver. Dr. Bharat Pankhania ...
