Over the years, cell biology has built a detailed picture of how cells compartmentalize their internal functions. Central to this organization is the nucleus, which houses the genetic material and is ...

Researchers have identified an alternate method to study changes during the DNA replication process in lab settings using genetically modified yeast. The new approach offers a clearer window than ...

THUWAL, Saudi Arabia — Scientists have finally captured footage of the microscopic machinery that allows our cells to copy ...

Researchers have identified a molecular brake that limits DNA replication in healthy cells, revealing how cells prevent a long-suspected replication catastrophe and pointing to a potential ...

Mitochondrial transcription elongation factor maintains the balance between transcription and replication of mitochondrial DNA offering insights into potential treatments for mitochondrial disease and ...

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 ...

A new, nano-scale look at how the SARS-CoV-2 virus replicates in cells may offer greater precision in drug development, a Stanford University team reports in Nature Communications. Using advanced ...
