"Trillions of cells in our body divide every single day, and this requires accurate replication of our genomes. Our work describes a new mechanism that regulates protein stability in replicating DNA.

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) replication is fundamental to life, yet the precise mechanics of how helicases unwind the genome for replication remain unclear. A recent study published in Nature used ...

What is DNA, and how does it work? You don't need a degree in genetics to understand. Here, we'll give an overview of DNA and ...

Researchers at Cima Universidad de Navarra have discovered that a ribonucleic acid that does not contain information to make proteins (long non-coding RNA) plays a crucial role in signalling and ...

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 ...

Vast swathes of the human genome remain a mystery to science. A new AI from Google DeepMind is helping researchers understand how these stretches of DNA impact the activity of other genes. While the ...

DNA is the molecular basis of heredity, the inherited traits that pass between generations in a person's family tree. Embodied in the sequence of base pairs, DNA carries information between ...
