Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a subtype of RNA. An mRNA molecule carries a portion of the DNA code to other parts of the cell for processing. mRNA is created during transcription. During the ...

The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA. But where does translation take place within a cell?

mRNA vaccines have gained widespread attention for their crucial role in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet, even before the ...

How does a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine work? COVID vaccines are now available. Some of the COVID-19 vaccines are mRNA vaccines, but what does this mean? mRNA vaccines are different from traditional ...

This means adults have a choice in which COVID vaccine they receive: an mRNA vaccine by Moderna or Pfizer, or Novavax, a protein-based vaccine that targets the virus in a more "traditional" way.

A team of researchers at the University of Pennsylvania took a new approach, using mRNA technology to design a multipronged vaccine that targets several proteins that underlie C. difficile’s ...

Moderna, Inc. engages in the development of transformative medicines based on messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA). Its product pipeline includes the following modalities: prophylactic vaccines ...

CureVac and partner GSK are, meanwhile, also developing an mRNA-based flu vaccine, but are a little further back in development, as their shot is in phase 1 testing.

There’s about 270 different viruses that can infect humans, and in the fall and winter we're inside more where they can spread more easily.

GlaxoSmithKline has filed a lawsuit against Moderna, claiming its mRNA vaccines infringe on GSK's patents. GSK seeks royalties for Moderna's alleged unlicensed use of its groundbreaking vaccine ...

The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to a pair of scientists who developed the technology that led to the mRNA Covid vaccines. Professors Katalin Kariko and Drew Weissman ...

But this is the first phase-IIb randomised clinical trial to test the investigational mRNA vaccine in patients. Could Covid vaccine technology crack cancer? Patients taking Keytruda for advanced ...
