Specifically, the sections of DNA that encode protein production are known as exons, and the noncoding sections interspersed among the exons are known as introns. During splicing, which occurs ...

Here, Johannesman et al demonstrate that some phages have co-opted an orphan antitoxin to counter a DNA ADP-ribosyltransferase defense system. Selecting subsets of specific sequences from complex ...

Some types of HPV can be prevented by vaccination. Human papillomaviruses belong to the family Papillomaviridae and are small, double-stranded DNA viruses that infect the epithelium. Over 200 HPV ...
