However, conditions for DNA replication are rarely ideal. For example, environmental toxins or drugs cause DNA damage and interfere with DNA replication. How does a cell circumvent such problems?

For example, regions of the genome that are rich ... targets in cancer—working to understand their influence on DNA ...

Base substitutions are the simplest type of gene-level mutation, and they involve the swapping of one nucleotide for another during DNA replication. For example, during replication, a thymine ...

While scientists have long known the importance of helicase in DNA replication, "they did not know how DNA, helicases and ATP work together in a coordinated cycle to drive DNA unwinding," De ...

A team led by Professor Kazuhiro Maeshima of the National Institute of Genetics (ROIS) and SOKENDAI in Japan has developed a ...

While scientists have long known the importance of helicase in DNA replication, "they did not know how DNA, helicases and ATP work together in a coordinated cycle to drive DNA unwinding," De ...

DNA is often seen as the blueprint of life—carrying the code to govern the development and traits of an organism—but “there ...

But now we can also use DNA sequencing technologies to monitor wildlife, and all that is needed is a tiny sample of their DNA. When an organism, say a fish, moves through the environment it’s ...
