Every day, billions of cells in your body divide, helping to replace old and injured cells with new ones. And each time this ...

Conjugation is a form of horizontal gene transfer that allows the exchange of genetic material between two organisms or cells ...

DNA replication is a complex process with many moving parts. In baker's yeast, the molecular complex Ctf18-RFC keeps parts of the replication machinery from falling off the DNA strand. Human cells ...

Our DNA is constantly under threat — from cell division errors to external factors like sunlight and smoking. Fortunately, ...

Mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (mtDNA) is essential for cellular energy production and overall cell function.

The Whitehouse lab is broadly interested in understanding how chromatin functions in the regulation of cellular processes such as DNA replication, gene transcription and epigenetics. We focus on ...

Environments are littered with the DNA of the creatures that inhabit them. Analyzing it could provide a real-time view of how our planet is changing. When you purchase through links on our site ...

Maintaining mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) integrity is crucial for cardiomyocyte function, and its disruption plays a significant ...

Until recently, wildlife surveys would involve going out and physically looking for species such as plants, birds or mammals. But now we can also use DNA sequencing technologies to monitor wildlife, ...

In the double helix structure of DNA, thymine forms a base pair with adenine through two hydrogen bonds. This specific pairing is known as complementary base pairing and is essential for the stability ...
