Researchers discovered that HSV-1 (herpes simplex virus) actively reshapes the 3D layout of human DNA within hours of ...

A DNA Technique Is Finding Women Who Left Their Babies for Dead Genetic genealogy is identifying the mothers of deceased newborns found abandoned, shedding light on crimes that went unsolved for ...

Ensuring that DNA replication occurs at the right stage of the cell cycle is of crucial importance in biology. In bacteria, DNA replication begins with the assembly of a DNA-protein complex called the ...

The discovery of DNA ligase by the Gellert, Lehman, Richardson, and Hurwitz teams in 1967 was a breakthrough in molecular biology. These essential enzymes maintain genome integrity and play a vital ...

Dive into the basics of DNA and its role in genetics. From structure to function, ExtremeTech explains it all. Discover the building blocks of life today.

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, ...

Mpox virus (MPXV) F8–A22–E4 polymerase holoenzyme is responsible for the accurate replication of the viral genome. Unlike other DNA polymerases, MPXV polymerase holoenzyme harbors the multifunctional ...

Eukaryotic DNA replication is a highly regulated process carried out by a complex molecular machine known as the replisome (Bell & Labib, 2016). Parental duplex DNA is unwound by the replicative ...

Abstract: We consider a nonlinear inverse problem where the unknown is assumed to be piecewise affine, which is motivated by an application in DNA replication analysis. Since traditional algorithmic ...

Entitled “DNA Basics: An Introduction to DNA and Genealogy,” it will be offered Nov. 19 at noon, EST.

DNA vaccines use part of the genes of a virus or bacteria to help your immune system fight diseases. Learn more about what these vaccines are and how they work.

Recent findings reveal that early mouse embryos replicate their DNA in a unique, uniform manner, which changes after the embryo grows beyond four cells. This early-stage replication is slower and more ...
