Co‑injecting three common amino acids with LNPs dramatically boosted both mRNA delivery and CRISPR gene editing efficiency in ...

RIKEN researchers have discovered how an enzyme modifies gene expression by targeting certain stretches of messenger RNA (mRNA) while leaving others alone. This finding could contribute to the ...

Researchers at the University of California, Davis and the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, U.K. have solved the the structure of the complex formed when mRNA is being scanned to find ...

The COVID-19 pandemic brought messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines to the forefront of global health care. After their clinical ...

Lipid nanoparticles, or LNPs, are best known as the delivery system used in the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines given to billions of people worldwide. Scientists are now exploring their potential far beyond ...

A new class of lipids improve the rates at which lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) successfully deliver RNA therapeutics and gene editing tools, promising to increase their effectiveness of such treatments.

We asked experts about how the technology works, its safety and its potential in medicine. By Nina Agrawal Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has repeatedly questioned the safety of mRNA vaccines ...

Researchers have found that targeted delivery of messenger RNA (mRNA) can restore sperm production and fertility in ...
