A research team has identified a new mechanism that controls DNA’s ability to replicate—and thereby a cell’s ability to ...

Scientists have discovered that a protein once thought to simply help load a factor necessary for the copying of DNA, plays a ...

For almost 60 years, scientists have tried to understand why DNA doesn't replicate wildly and uncontrollably every time a ...

DNA, though tightly packed in the nucleus, is constantly threatened by damage from metabolism and external stressors. One particularly severe form of DNA damage is the so-called DNA–protein crosslinks ...

Although DNA is tightly packed and safeguarded within the cell nucleus, it remains continually at risk of damage from normal ...
