Scientists Unlock 40,000-Year-Old Mammoth RNA For the First Time

: One of Yuka’s legs, illustrating the exceptional preservation of the lower part of the leg after the skin had been removed, which enabled recovery of ancient RNA molecules.

In a breakthrough that rewrites the boundaries of molecular archaeology, researchers have successfully extracted and sequenced RNA from a woolly mammoth that died nearly 40,000 years ago in Siberia. The discovery, published in the journal Cell, represents the oldest RNA ever recovered and offers an unprecedented molecular snapshot of life during the Ice Age. Scientists long believed that RNA molecules were far too fragile to survive more than hours or days after death, making this find all the more extraordinary.

The mammoth, nicknamed Yuka after the Siberian village near where she was discovered, has become one of paleontology’s most valuable specimens. Found in 2010 by tusk hunters along a riverbank near the Arctic coast, Yuka’s mummified remains included patches of reddish fur, an intact brain, and muscle tissue preserved in exquisite detail by the permafrost. This exceptional preservation created ideal conditions for the survival of delicate genetic material that normally degrades rapidly.
