Discovery of MicroRNA Genetic Regulation Leads American Scientists to Win 2024 Nobel Prize

XTalks

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to American scientists Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their groundbreaking discovery of microRNA (or miRNA) and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation. A gene contains instructions within our DNA.

Epigenetic Editing with CRISPR Might Be Easier Than We Thought

XTalks

These modifications regulate gene expression without changing the sequence or structure of DNA. The CRISPR gene editing system consists of the Cas9 enzyme, which serves as molecular scissors to cleave double-stranded DNA, and a guide RNA template targeted to a specific genomic sequence, which allows for precise editing.

Gene Switch: A Novel Platform for Switching Genes On and Off

Roots Analysis

Mechanism of Gene Switch During the transcription process, the promoter region, which is located near the upstream end of each gene, binds to transcription factor, which is a specific type of protein. An additional level of genetic control is provided by gene switches that are located upstream of the promoter region.

Elixirgen Therapeutics’ Innovative Approach to mRNA Therapeutics

XTalks

These platforms — Bobcat mRNATM, controllable self-replicating RNA (c-srRNA) and ZSCAN4 delivered by an RNA virus — represent the forefront of genetic therapy, harnessing the power of mRNA to combat diseases at their genetic roots. The essence of the c-srRNA platform lies in its innovative use of temperature as a regulatory mechanism.
