A multidisciplinary team of researchers, including archaeologists, have analyzed the DNA of fish remains from Roman fish ...

A new study published in Aging Cell reveals that a well-known enzyme, long known for its involvement with cancer, actually steps into the nucleus to help repair DNA. This enzyme is Protein Disulphide ...

Scientists studying ability of mice to regenerate ear damage say therapies based on retinoic acid might work across various ...

Discovery of DIAL syndrome could enable patients to have more personalised cancer care to reduce risk of chemotherapy toxicity ...

Coffee has long been lauded for its health benefits. Rich in antioxidants, it may enhance brain function. It’s also been shown to increase alertness, aid in weight management, boost mood and ...

Rare inherited disease increases cancer risk – and stops chemo-damaged DNA from repairing Discovery of DIAL syndrome could enable patients to have more personalised cancer care to reduce risk of ...

When DNA breaks inside the cell, it can spell disaster, especially if the damage occurs in areas of the genome that are difficult to repair. Now, scientists Irene Chiolo and Chiara Merigliano at ...

Human alkyladenine DNA glycosylase (AAG) protects against alkylative and oxidative DNA damage, flipping damaged nucleotides out of double-stranded DNA and catalyzing the hydrolytic cleavage of the ...

Dr Thompson and his team deposited samples of DNA on the surface of a quartz crystal. When an electric field is applied to the crystal, an acoustic wave (or high energy sound wave) is generated, which ...
