If DNA is a book, then how is it read ... the genes that encode most of the ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and RNA pol III transcribes the genes for one small rRNA, plus the transfer RNAs that play ...

The findings, published in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology on February 28, 2025, illuminate how Pol-theta undergoes a major structural rearrangement when it binds to broken DNA strands.

This historical perspective integrates 50 years of research on SOS mutagenesis in Escherichia coli with the proverbial '3R' functions—replication, repair and recombination—that feature DNA ...
