Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by ...

A subtle failure during cell division can set off dramatically different outcomes, according to new research exploring whole ...

The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must ...

Researchers have found that the way DNA is packaged in cells can directly impact how fast DNA itself is copied during cell division. They discovered that DNA packaging sends signals through an unusual ...

From The Bedalov Lab, Human Biology and Translational Science and Therapeutics Divisions Thus, the team began this current study with a scavenger hunt for a nucleosome-modifying enzyme which could ...

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

From the first unzip of the double helix to the final joining of DNA fragments, replication is a carefully coordinated process. Understanding it helps explain how life preserves its genetic code with ...

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