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 ...

DNA is a vitally important molecule for not only humans but also ... making up the “backbone” of the DNA strand. Each sugar in a nucleotide has a nitrogen base attached to it.

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

Once termination is complete, the mRNA molecule falls off the DNA template. At this point, at least in eukaryotes, the newly synthesized mRNA undergoes a process in which noncoding nucleotide ...

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.
