no 3D structure has ever been determined using data from a single molecule. Thus, determining the 3D structures of highly variable individual RNA molecules has not yet been achieved. Atomic force ...

National Cancer Institute researchers have developed a method called HORNET for characterizing 3D topological structures of large and flexible RNA molecules. Scientists used atomic force microscopy ...

To fight the virus that causes influenza, one of the avenues being explored by scientists is the development of drugs capable of destabilizing its genome, which is made up of eight RNA molecules.

To combat the influenza virus, researchers are investigating ways to destabilize its genome, composed of eight RNA molecules. However, each RNA segment is bound to a complex assembly of proteins that ...

For the first time, however, the structure of this protective mantle and its interactions with the virus' RNA have been described on an atomic scale by scientists from the CNRS 2 and l'Université ...
