A protein called PriC allows DNA replication to proceed in Escherichia coli when the complex that usually initiates this process is compromised.

Early research shows that editing expanding trinucleotide repeats halts the lengthening process that causes neurological ...

A unique feature of HR is that it repairs the damage to the DNA in a highly accurate way. In eukaryotic cells (those with a ...

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

Efforts to mimic these assembly processes enter a new phase with a method to design and build three ... of DNA double helices tethered by 'strand-exchange points'. These points model naturally ...

Systemic Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: ASCO Guideline Update Our study included a broad cohort of 1,167 participants, from which plasma was collected and ...

Abstract Faithful chromosome segregation requires the removal of all DNA bridges physically linking chromatids before the completion of cell division ...

If DNA bridges remain between chromosomes after cell division, chromosomes become improperly segregated, resulting in genetic ...

Errors in DNA replication play a role in the development of cancer and can lead to a broad range of genetic disorders. "We realized we needed to build some more tools to get really accurate, precise ...
