New research published in Nature Communications has linked a normal cellular process to an accumulation of DNA mutations in ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...

The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break-when both sides of the DNA helix are cut at once.

In a quiet lab at Utrecht University, researchers have built a tool that lets you watch one of life’s most serious crises ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their ...
