A molecular technique that will help the scientific community to analyze -- on a scale previously impossible -- molecules that play a critical role in regulating gene expression has been developed by a research team. The technique, which has potential uses in human health, enables more-accurate prediction of how ribonucleic acid molecules fold within living cells, shedding new light on how living organisms respond to environmental conditions.
