Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...
Objectives Understanding the molecular changes in the preclinical synovium is crucial for identifying factors that drive ...
Comparison of a single-stranded RNA and a double-stranded DNA with their corresponding nucleobases. (Image: Wikimedia Commons, CC SA 3.0) The most common type of base pairing is the Watson-Crick base ...
A new mouse study found that unrepaired DNA-protein crosslinks activate inflammatory signaling pathways that trigger early aging disorders.
Biology lectures teach students that when a cell’s replication machinery comes together, DNA polymerase takes off down the double-helix like a car on a highway ...
New study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...
Like the human immune system, bacteria learn from past infections. CRISPR sequences—short snippets of DNA from previous viruses—guide destructive enzymes towards invading bacteriophages that express ...
