For the first time, researchers have filmed in real time the disassembly of DNA at the atomic scale. This strand separation is the first step in DNA replication. This breakthrough, published ...

allowing for all the events that follow in DNA replication. This direct observation sheds light on the fundamental mechanisms that allow cells to faithfully duplicate their genetic material ...

Dr Shahid continued: "The helicase mechanism we've uncovered appears to be evolutionarily conserved from viruses to humans, providing a universal blueprint for understanding DNA replication across ...

For the first time, Professor Veyrier and his team at INRS have discovered a family of enzymes that can cut specific sequences in single-stranded DNA. These enzymes, called site-specific ...

Researchers from the University of Birmingham have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question.

This study reveals how SV40 helicase unwinds DNA, highlighting ATP hydrolysis's role in translocation and offering insights into viral replication mechanisms.

In their new study, the researchers studied the DNA replication patterns in early embryos. "We discovered differences in the replication mechanisms of maternal and paternal DNA during the initial ...

Researchers have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question.

A few years ago, the advent of technology known as CRISPR was a major breakthrough in the scientific world. Developed from a ...

The effect of saccharin on the microbiome has received much attention, but its impact on pathogenic bacterial species is less clear. This study reports the potential of saccharin to be developed as a ...
