Scientists have uncovered a critical role for rapid DNA repair in maintaining genome stability. A new study reveals that ...

A unique feature of HR is that it repairs the damage to the DNA in a highly accurate way. In eukaryotic cells (those with a ...

This landmark study describes the structure of the human RAD51 filament with a recombination intermediate called the displacement loop (D-loop). Using cryogenic structural, biochemical, and ...

Most biochemistry labs that study DNA isolate it within a water-based solution that allows scientists to manipulate DNA without interacting with other molecules. They also tend to use heat to ...

Rapidly mutating DNA regions were mapped using a multi-generational family and advanced sequencing tools. Understanding how ...

By creating a more true-to-life representation of DNA's environment, researchers at Northwestern University have discovered that strand separation - the essential process a "resting" double helix ...

We collected samples of wild dogs’ faeces from across seven different landscape types in South Africa’s Kruger National Park, extracted DNA from them, and analysed this. Our research found ...

Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) created an AI tool which dreams up DNA regulatory sequences not seen before in nature. The model can be told to create synthetic fragments of ...

She then factors in genomic data sourced from DNA samples and layers additional information collected over time, such as weight and growth rates. "I think the best way forward is to combine visual ...
