Cancer, a disease with global impact, is intricately linked to dysregulated gene expression, which is influenced by both genetic mutations and epigenetic changes, including RNA modifications. A ...
Around 320,000 new cases of leukaemia, a type of blood cancer that can affect all population groups, are diagnosed every year in Europe. In children, cases of leukaemia make up a third of diagnosed ...
Researchers have developed a powerful tool capable of scanning thousands of biological samples to detect transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) modifications—tiny chemical changes to RNA molecules that help ...
Once considered passive messengers of genetic information, RNA molecules are now understood to play an active and dynamic role in gene regulation, modulated by a rich layer of chemical modifications ...
A new study published in Engineering reveals that NSUN2, a key protein involved in RNA modification, significantly ...
Researchers led by François Fuks - Laboratory of Cancer Epigenetics, ULB Faculty of Medicine, ULB Cancer Research Center and Jules Bordet Institute, H.U.B. - have made a major breakthrough in the ...
In 2020, Juan Alfonzo, a professor of molecular biology, cell biology and biochemistry, began a project out of “pure COVID boredom.” Now, that project may become the largest scientific undertaking ...
