Scientists at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, have uncovered a crucial trick used by enteroviruses—the group ...
For decades, virologists knew that enteroviruses pulled a kind of bait-and-switch inside human cells, repurposing the cell’s ...
Scientists have discovered that a protein once thought to simply help load a factor necessary for the copying of DNA, actually plays a key role in ensuring fast and reliable replication—an insight ...
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 DNA ...
American scientists have discovered a hidden molecular mechanism that helps enteroviruses multiply in the human body. This ...
“Our lab is generally interested in discovering and characterizing previously unknown or poorly understood factors that are essential for genome maintenance. This is particularly important in the ...
Novel, potent pan-viral inhibitors targeting the viral replication complex are under development for the treatment of ...
Proteins are the molecular workhorses of cells. To understand their functions, scientists soon realized that they had to figure out proteins’ shapes. But solving a protein structure is a challenging ...
Researchers at the University of Stuttgart have achieved a notable advance in synthetic cell ...
If parent cells and their daughter cells are to share a stable identity, parent cells must divide—and replicate their DNA—while ensuring that their histones are distributed properly to their daughter ...
