In a leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, two scientists at the University of Missouri have developed a powerful ...

Chemists at UCL and the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology have demonstrated how RNA (ribonucleic acid) might have ...

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 ...

Find more information on the Altmetric Attention Score and how the score is calculated. The assembly, structure, and stability of DNA nanocages with the shape of truncated octahedra have been studied.

Genetic mutations occur everyday in our cells, but the vast majority of them are repaired. New research finds DNA repair is not on PAR in HD cells, causing mutations to build up in people with HD.

Find more information on the Altmetric Attention Score and how the score is calculated. It has now been nearly two decades since the first solution structures of DNA duplexes covalently damaged by ...

The resulting structure is knitted together by a few hundred short, synthetic DNA molecules that act as staples, linking together the helices at appropriately spaced strand-exchange points.

Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that ...

By clearly marking the ends of chromosomes, telomeres prevent them from being recognised as broken DNA. This could trigger DNA repair processes that result in chromosome fusion or lead to other ...
