He and a colleague proved a theory advanced by the Nobel Prize winners James Watson and Francis Crick, who discovered DNA’s ...

G-quadruplexes and cancer "The DNA double helix is one of the most recognizable molecular structures in science," Dr. Batra ...

The being in question is a microbe called Sukunaarchaeum mirabile. Preliminary research says it stretches the definition of ...

DNA replication is a tightly controlled process that copies the genetic code, allowing its instructions to be conveyed from one generation of cells to the next.

It has genes for ribosomes, tRNAs, and mRNAs. These components are the scaffolding of life: the tools by which cells read ...

Drs Ursula A. Matulonis and Joyce F. Liu discuss targeting DNA damage and repair and replication stress in endometrial cancer.

DNA replication, the basis for biological inheritance, is a fundamental process occurring in all living organisms to copy their DNA. This process is "semiconservative" in that each strand of the ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that the "pacemaker" controlling yeast cell division lies inside the ...

New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

Their findings, which were published March 7 in Science, one of world’s leading scientific journals, not only reveal new details about how secondary DNA structures like G4s can impede DNA replication, ...
