Then, once synthesized, this new DNA can be incorporated into the broken DNA strand, thereby repairing it. In effect, this is a form of recombination, because the broken-off area is replaced with ...

The NTase domain binds to the broken DNA strands at and flanking the nick, the OB domain contacts the continuous template strand surrounding the nick, and the HhH domain binds both strands across the ...

Since the DNA has two complementary strands, we went on and tested the other DNA strand, which game a perfect 100% match," Louhelainen told the Liverpool Echo newspaper. DNA from semen stains on ...

Such damage can lead to breaks in the DNA strand. If DNA damage is not properly ... to "repair cafés," where people gather to fix broken items. "Such a central place makes the process more ...

One important player is the "molecular matchmaker" RAD51, which attaches itself to broken DNA strands and helps them find their way to their sibling strand, which then serves as a template to ...

Researchers have revealed new details about the CRISPR-Cas5-HNH/Cascade complex, a variant of the type I-E CRISPR-Cas system, ...

The platform enables direct, unbiased genome-wide identification and quantification of the exact position of double strand ...

Once access has been gained, Rad51 polymerizes on the DNA strand to form what is called ... that in induced recombination experiments, the broken ends of strands recombine with what are called ...

These tails are substrates for strand-exchange proteins that catalyze invasion of ... which trap the protein when it is bound to broken DNA and thus turn Topo II into a DNA-damaging toxin. Topo II can ...
