Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by ...

The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have developed a new imaging method, known as RF-SIRF, that ...

Inhibiting RNase H2 increases DNA damage and activates immune responses in triple-negative breast cancer, suggesting a ...

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 ...

A routine experiment with a new single-cell DNA sequencing method turned into a surprising scientific twist when researchers ...

Revising the structure and replication of DNA? Test your knowledge of the process and need for DNA replication with this Higher Biology quiz.

Scientists are uncovering the intricate shapes and processes of DNA that go far beyond the textbook double helix. From visualizing tangled structures with nanometer precision to decoding how cells ...

DNA replication is usually a very precise, templated process, but some enzymes are capable of "doodling," which might lead to ...
