Researchers have identified an alternate method to study changes during the DNA replication process in lab settings using genetically modified yeast. The new approach offers a clearer window than ...

These sequences are extremely prone to mutations and rank among the most functionally important regions in the entire human ...

A joint study revealing a new mechanism on DNA Replication Initiation, led by The University of Hong Kong (HKU), The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), and other institutions, has ...

A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

Alcohol consumption leads to the formation of a toxic compound called acetaldehyde, which damages DNA. A research team from ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular aging, cancer, ...
