STONY BROOK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 9, 2023 / Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:APDN) ("Applied DNA" or the "Company"), a leader in PCR-based DNA technologies, today announced that it has ...

The protein UBR7 acts as a histone chaperone, regulating histone re-deposition at specific sites during DNA replication, according a recent study published in The EMBO Journal. This protein was ...

The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break—when both ...

All organisms must preserve the integrity of their genomes. In humans, genetic instability is associated with cancer and aging. Our laboratory seeks to understand the fundamental mechanisms by which ...

On 22 May 2019, scientists from Queen's University boarded a modified Falcon 20 aircraft at Ottawa airport. Scheduled was a ‘vomit comet’ flight, where the plane repeatedly climbs to 8km in a steep ...

The first step in DNA replication requires the assembly of a group of proteins called the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC). Researchers have determined how the ORC assembles during the cell division ...

Researchers have demonstrated a programmable nano-scale robot, made from a few strands of DNA, that's capable of grabbing other snippets of DNA, and positioning them together to manufacture new ...

Jennifer A. Surtees has long been dedicated to studying genome stability and boosting community involvement in research. With a new National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant, she’ll get to do both.

The complex appears to reel in the DNA around the mismatch as well, marking and protecting the DNA region until repair can occur. "Due to the mobility of these proteins, current thinking envisioned ...
