You could probably find a few biologists who are diehard protein partisans, and others who love lipids, but if a genie granted them one wish for what they could see inside living cells, most would ...

New study shows RNA polymerase I halts at abasic DNA damage, helping prevent faulty rRNA production and exposing lesions for ...

DNA consists of two strands, arranged in a double helix. These strands are made up of subunits called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate, a 5-carbon sugar molecule and a nitrogenous ...

DNA sequencing technology, i.e., determining the order of nucleotide bases in a DNA molecule, is central to personalized medicine and disease diagnostics, yet even the fastest technologies require ...

The molecule in question is known as 5-ethynyl ... the specific type of repair response invoked in EdU-tagged DNA is what’s called nucleotide excision repair. This common process is how DNA ...

Scientists at the UNC School of Medicine have made the surprising discovery that a molecule ... alters DNA in a way that provokes a repair response called nucleotide excision repair.
