Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by ...
A subtle failure during cell division can set off dramatically different outcomes, according to new research exploring whole genome duplication. A new study finds that the way a cell fails to divide ...
Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have developed a new imaging method, known as RF-SIRF, that ...
Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have identified a key enzyme—RNase H2—that helps ...
Glucose is the fuel to the cellular engine. It powers the cell’s functions and serves as the raw material for synthesizing various essential biomolecules, including the sugar backbone of DNA and RNA.
The MCM helicase is broadly bound across the genome, and its phosphorylation is antagonistically regulated by the kinase DDK and the phosphatase RIF1–PP1. TRESLIN–MTBP recognises the phosphorylated ...
When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don't undergo mitosis, a splitting that involves construction of spindles to carefully separate the DNA after ...
Top: Chromosome separate with functioning SMC in two models, line drawing and filled-space. The red and pink dots indicate, respectively, ori on each copy of DNA. Bottom: DNA separating without ...
Scientist Elizabeth Ng is clutching a small flask with a clear mixture inside it that she’s just retrieved from inside a ...
