Where were you when I was in high school? It's nice to have something described understandably! Thank you for sharing this video here on TH-cam!
Thank you for making my day! This is exactly why I started this channel! To be able to make science understandable!
It's a miracle that we know all this and that we can deal with it. We are so blessed. 🙏
Ur so brainwashed
Thank you for your time. This was very helpful.
Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful!
Thank you for these explanation.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you I found my questions here. Perfect video
Thank you for the feedback! I’m happy to hear it helped!
Thanks for all the information
You're welcome! Glad it helped!
You explained very clearly.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video.
That Was Bad Ass! You explained this content well. It took me 16 College Weeks to learn what you said in Nine minutes. Nice job teacher!!
Wow! Thank you for making my day!
Thank you Dr.
You’re welcome! Glad you liked it!
Very informative 👏🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for your video. Can you please point to a source where I can info on the solubility, temp stability and size of mRNA
That really depends on each mRNA. Here is an article about stability www.researchgate.net/publication/343972597_mRNA_Stability
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19281824/
Very nice explanation 👌🏻
My all doubts are clear now thanks 😊
Glad to hear that!
What is it? Science & technology at it's best! YA science!!!
Perfect. Do we have miRNA explanation in recent research ?
No, I have not yet made a video on miRNA.
Are you going to do anything on stem cells?
Thank u mam!!☺️☺️
You’re welcome!! Thank you!!
Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent discussion
Thank you!
Your video was very well done and easy to understand...very informative!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
If mrna, is in the covid 19 vaccine. How would that effect a person with an issue with protein such as MGUS?
I’m not super familiar with that disease, but looked it up. It appears as if that disease is due to an abnormal protein in the blood. I’m not sure how that specific protein would interact (if at all) with the spike protein from the covid vaccine. In theory, the covid vaccine mRNA is translated in the body into the spike protein that it codes for, that protein the. Initiates an immune response. I don’t see this disease being an issue with the vaccine. However, I am a scientist and not a medical doctor, so always refer to your medical doctor for advice.
Can anything unintentional occur from injecting Mrna into our bodies? I saw that it basically puts caps onto the crown of the covid virus so it can't connect to something ( not in medical field or anything so doing my best to explain this) but, my question is, can this injection of Mrna block something else from being absorbed into our body?
The mRNA codes for the spike protein on the COVID-19 virus. So mRNA can be made into protein and that protein is what stimulates an immune response. mRNA itself degrades fairly quickly, so it doesn’t last very long in the body. I made another video on how the mRNA vaccine works, that may help you understand a bit better as well.
@@DrVanessa thanks! Got my first round of the moderna vaccine yesterday! Feeling just fine.
@@MrJmunoawesome! I’ve heard that side effects can be a little worse with the second one, but it’s good, just means your body is working! Glad you are feeling fine! Most just experience sore arms and fatigue.
Thanks for the explanation!
Glad it was helpful!
do u regularly post videos?
i need to talk to u!🥺
Yes! I am really working on trying to get videos out every week, I am behind this week though!
need to talk to u om any social media app

Great job .. thanks
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this information
Thank you!
great work ❤🇪🇬
Thank you!
Only those who manufacture it truly know what it is and what's in it. 9 months sure.
Thank you for your comment. This video is about mRNA in our body and how it works. This is a process that occurs in cells all the time.
Still trying to figure out myself what is actually in it and what it’s made from.
@@DrVanessa Thank you for this video it was hard to find a video that was just purely about mRNA and not vaccines. I do not envy your position with all these comments who cant even grasp that fact. I commend your attitude when dealing with comments like these.
Ask the mRna in your body to find out why they manufaced themselves without your approval.
@John Citizen that's what I'm trying to research. Graphene oxide in the vaccines, any vaccines.
Please make the ending graphic of the ribosome larger so I can read it on my smartphone thank you
The world doesn’t revolve around you
As a videographer talking to another videographer I'm helping him with his video and you don't count so shut the fuk up
Mam can u tell me , the size of mRNA depend on the gene or the protein?
Im talking out of my ass here but isnt the protein a result of the mRNA?
Sorry I missed this comment! The protein is a result of the mRNA, and the size of the mRNA can vary depending on the protein it codes for. The larger the protein, the larger the mRNA. However, they vary within a range and are never very big. The mRNA will appear longer as for every three nucleotide bases, one amino acid is coded for.
I would like to know what DNA is being used? Where does it come from? Thank you.
Hi Mahala. This is a process that occurs naturally in our bodies everyday. The DNA is our own.
@@DrVanessa so they're shooting something in you that you already have in you? That doesn't make sense.
@@bonniegreatorex72 this video is about mRNA and what it is. mRNA is found in our body and is made from our DNA to code for the proteins that work on our body and make us who we are. This video is about that mRNA. Not about anything else.
I would love to know what DNA is used in the vaccine 😂
@@growthmindset8243 no DNA in the vaccine. The mRNA used is taken from the actual virus and synthesized to make more.
What is the acronym mRNA definition?
mRNA stands for messenger ribonucleic acid. There are three types of RNA in the body, mRNA, tRNA (which would be transfer ribonucleic acid) and rRNA (which are the ribosomes in the cell).
I was leaning not to receive the gene therapy vaccine. After watching the video , I will not be getting this type of vaccine in the immediate future. I'll sit back and observe the clinical trials. Is anyone working on an "oldschool" vaccine for covid?
BTW, I will be getting the seasonal flu shot.
Yes. Look up Novavax.
thank you!
You’re welcome!! Glad it helped!
thanks, doc.
Most welcome!
Hello, Doctor! Nice video. However, just for clarification are you saying that because DNA is too large to leave the cell it creates mRNA to send instructions to different cells? I’m getting lost in the details.
DNA is too large to leave the nucleus of the cell. Therefore, mRNA is made from the DNA code within the nucleus. At that point, mRNA can leave the nucleus and attach to a ribosome (in the same cell, not other cells) and be translated into protein. Hope that helps clarify!
@@DrVanessa Thanks for the reply! That helps a whole lot! I thought it left the cell entirely and went to other cells to deliver the instructions. I appreciate your patience and ability to take a really tough subject and make it understandable! Maybe you should write a book. If you have done so already, let me know the title so I can buy it on Amazon.
@@urbanlark thank you! I appreciate it!! I have not but maybe one day I will!
@@DrVanessa With regards to the Covid vaccine mRNA being transported by lipd nanoparticles, is it possible that the carriers get into other cells since the selectivity is shaky?
@@duke62778 I'm not sure what you are asking with "is it possible that it gets to ok there cells"?
Excellent video, thanks!
Thank you! Glad you loved it!
Can you please add another video 'How it translate like AUG Coding etc more detail...
@@vanlalreiaralte7365 yes! I can do that!
@@vanlalreiaralte7365 I am working on it, it will be uploaded on Monday. Thank you!
@@vanlalreiaralte7365 new video is available now with the information you requested. Thank you! th-cam.com/video/KZpAtxVrJzQ/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Dr. Vannessa. I've a question about how the mRNA contained in a vaccine, ie the Covid-19 vaccine, might work.
When the same mRNA strand is given to many different people of different lineages and genetic make-ups, is it bound to produce the same effect in everybody? Is the protein synthesis that occurs as a result going to produce the same protein in everybody, or will the produced protein be different to some extent, in different individuals?
If the produced protein is the same in all who receive this same mRNA strand, would it work the same in all individuals? Or is it bound to affect the bodies/bodily processes of different individuals differently?
Thank you.
Andrew, thank you for your comment. mRNA is processed the same way in everyone. The code is read the same and would produce the same protein every time in every one. The body would recognize the protein as foreign and mount an immune response, thus, creating antibodies. However, there is a chance that some could react to the protein differently. I hope this helps!
Where does the MRNA in the covid vaccine come from?
This video is referring to what is mRNA. mRNA is in everyone’s body and codes for all the proteins that make you, you.
The mRNA for the injection comes from the virus itself. It codes for the spike protein. However, this video is not about the injection or the virus.
But where does it come from?! Where do you find nucliec acids?!?! Is it in an animal? A human? How is it extracted? Do you grow it in a lab?? Where does it come from????
mRNA is found in your body, it’s code comes from your DNA. Nucleic acids are found in your body as well.
What strand of DNA does the mRNA come from in the COVID 19 vaccine
It actually comes from the virus itself. They do use live actual virus to get the mRNA from initially, then replicate for more copies in the lab setting.
@@DrVanessa so they were able to isolate the virus? I thought they weren't able to do that so they made a replica of it? And that's why it's inorganic? Thank you
👍👍👍
Thank you!
Thanks. I’m a lot anxious about the vaccine. But I figure if I knew how it worked it would help.
I had nutrition in college and chemistry so I was able to follow along.
Glad you were able to follow along! This video deals specifically with the mRNA in our body and how it works. I have another video that goes more into detail on how that concept is applied to the vaccine. This video is a good precursor for the other one.
If you're anxious just don't get it. Listen to your instincts. God gave you an immune system and it works just fine.
There's virtually no need for you to get it when considering the high survival rate and low incidence of severe symptoms. If you want to boost your immunity, I recommend healthy diet, exercise, and supplements. Why gamble with your health? You have no idea how your body will respond to the nanoparticles.
@@jamaicafox It almost sounds like you didn’t watch the video and just straight up commented. People and scientists with a basic education in biology DO know how a mRNA vaccine works and how the body might respond to it.
@@dirtygerd9083 Respectfully, please keep religion out of science, thank you.

Whose DNA did RNA transcribed from?
This is a process that occurs in your body on a daily basis. mRNA is transcribed from your DNA to make all the proteins that make you up.
@@DrVanessa so where is it taken from for the vaccine?
For the vaccine the mRNA is copied from the actual virus.
@@DrVanessa ok thanks
@@DrVanessa why do persons still get the virus nonetheless?
اتمنى لو انني أتقن اللغة الإنجليزية
Epigenetics makes the protein.
I wish you were my science teacher
Thank you! I do offer tutoring! Both private and group. Check out my website if you are interested. I am glad you enjoy my videos!
I'm glad I finally got my second shot a few days ago, but I'd like to point out that I rarely comment on TH-cam but this time I feel obliged.
This vaccine was done way too fast. The day after my second injection I felt so bad I couldn't move out of bed for two days. No vaccine has ever had this effect, which proves that it was designed too quickly without worrying about the side effects.
Even when I had the flu several years ago I was not that sick.
It was horrible, they better not ask me for a third injection in six months because this time it's out of the question, even though I'm in favor of vaccination
Thank you for sharing your experience!
All vaccines and medicines have side effects. Some more severe in others.
Are you really a doctor?
Yes. The I earned my doctorate in Biomedical sciences with a focus in immunology and reproductive endocrinology. I am not a medical doctor.
@@DrVanessaWhich would you choose: an mRNA or inactivated virus or viral vector based COVID vaccine?
My sister is anti-vax figured i’d do some light reading about what she thinks she’s afraid of so i can attempt to explain it to her properly
👏👏
