University of Delaware's Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA—the ribonucleic acid that ...

Because RNAs are so central to our biology, they are also drivers of a wide array of diseases. Defects in how RNA is produced ...

Instead, they rely on the RNA silencing system, which serves as their innate immune defense by recognizing and degrading viral RNA. In turn, viruses have evolved viral suppressors to inhibit the ...
