Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have identified a key enzyme—RNase H2—that helps ...

Loss of an enzyme necessary for a process called lipoylation disrupts the way cancer cells copy their DNA, increasing their ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have developed a new imaging method, known as RF-SIRF, that ...

DNA replication is one of life’s most precise and essential processes, ensuring genetic information is faithfully passed from cell to cell and generation to generation. This remarkable molecular ...

Recognising impressive contribution and transformative impact across the molecular biosciences, the Biochemical Society has ...

When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don’t undergo mitosis, a splitting that involves construction of spindles to carefully separate the DNA after ...

Scientists have discovered that a protein once thought to simply help load a factor necessary for the copying of DNA, actually plays a key role in ensuring fast and reliable replication—an insight ...

The MCM helicase is broadly bound across the genome, and its phosphorylation is antagonistically regulated by the kinase DDK and the phosphatase RIF1–PP1. TRESLIN–MTBP recognises the phosphorylated ...

His decoding of the blueprint for life with Francis H.C. Crick made him one of the most important scientists of the 20th century. He wrote a celebrated memoir and later ignited an uproar with racist ...

Is it the invasion of the genome snatchers? Just in case the idea of aliens walking around in human skin suits wasn’t frightening enough. An outlandish study asserts that aliens might have abducted us ...

ABSTRACT: DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid, carrying encoded genetic information at molecular level, is the most significant discovery in the history of genetics. Previous researches on DNA included topics ...
