Scientists at uOttawa design a new enzyme that targets non-coding RNA

Scientists at the University of Ottawa have engineered an enzyme that can specifically cut small, non-coding RNAs, shedding light on their functions and paving the way for potential therapeutic applications. The new enzyme could be a powerful tool for studying these important RNA species.

Scientists improve the equation in FDA guidance predicting drug interactions

Researchers have improved the FDA's equation for predicting drug interactions by addressing fundamental limitations and incorporating new models. The modified equation has shown a significantly increased accuracy of about 80%, which is expected to contribute to increasing the success rate of new drug development.
