At some point, RNA must have replicated itself before the evolutionary arrival of DNA and proteins, and now we might know how ...

Chemists at UCL and the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology have demonstrated how RNA (ribonucleic acid) might have ...

Life is thought to have begun when RNA began replicating itself, and researchers have got close to achieving this in the lab ...

Chemists have demonstrated how RNA (ribonucleic acid) might have replicated itself on early Earth -- a key process in the origin of life.

RNA is a copy of DNA ... but some other types found in the genome include A-DNA, H-DNA, and Z-DNA. DNA replication is a process that occurs when DNA in the cells copies itself.

This observation is critical to understanding how the initial RNA-primed template is handed ... modulators to serve as tools for studying DNA replication in cells. Tool compounds of this type ...

DNA and RNA methylation, initially thought to operate as distinct pathways, have been shown to interact closely, shifting our understanding of gene regulation. A team of researchers from the ...

Scientists have identified an RNA that they named 'lncREST' (long ... the localisation of key proteins in the process of DNA replication and DNA damage repair where they are needed.

Even though the end products of replication and transcription are different, they both work on DNA by adding nucleotides in the same 5’ to 3’ direction. In contrast with RNA polymerase, DNA ...
