LINCOLN, Nebraska, Jan. 14 -- The University of Nebraska Lincoln campus issued the following news release:
In the conventional view, RNA is a conduit that carries genetic codes from DNA to the protein-building machinery of cells -- a passive messenger with no independent role. But over time, scientists have increasingly recognized RNA as an active, distinct player in cellular function, genetic expression and biology. Not only did RNA play a starring role in COVID-19 vaccine developm . . .
