University of Virginia School of Medicine scientists have uncovered a key reason why HIV remains so difficult to cure: Their ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology have addressed a longstanding challenge in CRISPR ...

A protein called PriC allows DNA replication to proceed in Escherichia coli when the complex that usually initiates this process is compromised.

At some point, RNA must have replicated itself before the evolutionary arrival of DNA and proteins, and now we might know how ...

The authors created a useful collection of Rep protein variants with changes that alter the amino acid sequence, but these did not lead to clear improvements in how the virus worked. Instead, their ...

Early research shows that editing expanding trinucleotide repeats halts the lengthening process that causes neurological ...

By Livia Albeck-Ripka Reporting from Los Angeles Los Angeles County will retest about 4,000 DNA samples connected to criminal cases after discovering that it had been using potentially defective ...

A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA during the replication process has been identified. A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind ...

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 ...

However, during recombinant AAV production, nonhomologous recombination between the AAV vector and packaging DNA can lead to the formation of rcAAVs. These replication-competent vectors ...
