Before a cell can divide, it has to precisely duplicate its entire genetic information. However, the DNA in the cell exists ...
A new single-molecule flow-stretch assay enables real-time observation of DNA-protein interactions to identify the molecular ...
Researchers found that SMC proteins drive bacterial DNA separation by compacting chromosomes lengthwise, generating repulsive ...
In a landmark simulation, scientists have recreated the full cell cycle of a living cell in four dimensions — three ...
Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...
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 ...
An Erie County judge has ordered DNA testing on evidence from a 1993 murder case. Willie James Hardy, 67, is challenging his conviction for the strangulation death of his former girlfriend, Deborah ...
Mayo Clinic researchers have identified a protein that acts like a traffic controller for DNA, preventing damage during cell division - a discovery that could lead to new cancer therapies, according ...
