Cells have evolved careful checks to ensure DNA is copied only once, but how they switch on replication at the right moment ...
Scientists uncovered DNA's double helix structure in 1953. James Watson and Francis Crick proposed the model. It explained ...
Caltech researchers have identified a novel chemical reaction that could explain the formation of the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the molecules that encode all of life's functions. The work is an ...
A major obstacle to studying DNA replication is that it involves asynchronous and highly delocalized events. A reversible replication barrier overcomes this limitation and allows replication fork ...
An article by UAB professor Joan-Ramon Daban analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have often been neglected in structural models of chromosomes. The study ...
An evolutionary trait of humans and most animals is that they inherit mitochondrial DNA exclusively from the mother, even though the father's spermatozoa have mitochondria. If spermatozoa have ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising secret about our DNA: it’s not a static blueprint, but a constantly shifting, folding structure that helps control how genes turn on and off. Researchers at the ...
Researchers from the University of Birmingham have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question. The publication of two papers ...
