Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by DNA damage. Among the most dangerous lesions are DNA interstrand crosslinks ...
Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...
DNA, often called the blueprint of life, is built from four chemical building blocks known as deoxy-nucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs)—dATP, dTTP, dGTP, and dCTP. Cells constantly need these molecules ...
A new study finds that when p53, one of the most important cancer-protecting genes, stops working, cells produce too much RNA ...
Eukaryotic DNA replication is initiated at multiple origins through a tightly regulated sequence of events: origin licensing, helicase activation and assembly of the replisome. The replicative ...
Virtual and on-site registration ranges from €190 to €950, with virtual PhD-student registration at €190.
MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...
HUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, September 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) is a core protein governing DNA replication, damage ...
A new discovery by researchers at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics (BDR) in Japan upends decades of assumptions regarding DNA replication. Led by Ichiro Hiratani and colleagues, the ...
