Semiconservative replication was not the only model of DNA replication proposed during the mid-1950s, however. In fact, two other prominent hypotheses were put also forth: conservative replication ...

the removal of DNA damage results in the enzyme-catalyzed monomerization of pyrimidine dimers 1. The demonstration of non-semiconservative DNA synthesis in mammalian (including human) cells ...

During cell division, DNA undergoes replication to produce two identical copies of the genetic material. The double helix unwinds, and each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new ...

A new study suggests that severe trauma, like that experienced in war, can leave epigenetic “scars” on DNA that endures for generations. In the early 1980s, the Syrian regime carried out a ...
