Speaker: Prof. Beatrix Suess Department of Biology, Technical University Darmstadt Abstract RNA utilises many different mechanisms to control gene expression. Among the regulatory elements that respond to external stimuli, riboswitches are a prominent and elegant example. Riboswitches consist solely of RNA. They are characterised by binding of a small molecule ligand to the so-called aptamer domain, which results in a conformational change of the downstream expression platform that determines the output of the system. The modular organisation of riboswitches has…

SFNano Webinar: mRNA Lipid Nanoparticle formulations for new mRNA-vaccines
The mRNA vaccines are a new type of vaccines which have experienced a unprecedent burst in basic and clinical research. At the turn of 2020 two mRNA vaccines were approved by the EU commission: BioNTech/Pfizer vaccine right before Christmas and then Moderna vaccine early January. These vaccines were among the first available vaccines to fight the Covid-19 pandemic and they demonstrated the potency and versatility of mRNA technology to protect against infectious disease. The fantastic acceleration of mRNA-vaccine development is…
