mRNA Therapeutics and mRNA Vaccines Industry: Current Scenario and Future Trends

Roots Analysis

It is important in the process of protein synthesis because mRNA is responsible for transferring genetic information from DNA to ribosomes, which then decodes the genetic information into a protein. Messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) is a single-stranded molecule that is complementary to a gene’s DNA.

Nutrigenomics: The Future of Personalized Nutrition

Roots Analysis

Nutrigenomics is the science studying the relationship between human genome, nutrition and health. In part, the success of the Human Genome Project has also paved a path for the novel concept of nutrigenomics. Nutritional DNA testing helps in identifying foods that might lead to allergies or intolerance in an individual.

World RNA Day: What impact RNA it had on drug discovery?  

Drug Discovery World

1 August was first chosen as World RNA Day in 2018 as a play on AUG (adenine, uracil and guanine), a triple sequence of RNA (called a codon) that initiates protein synthesis by the cell. Since then, it has been observed to publicise the importance of this molecule in the generation of proteins in the body.

World AIDS Day 2023: New and Promising Treatments for HIV/AIDS

XTalks

Its mechanism of action involves blocking the protein shell (capsid) of the HIV-1 virus, disrupting multiple crucial stages of the viral lifecycle. This candidate, derived from a person’s own genetically modified cells, aims to restore the Gag-specific CD4+ T cell response in those receiving antiretroviral therapy.
