A research group has demonstrated that overexpression of Cdc10-dependent transcript 1 (CDT1), a key regulator of DNA ...

Cedars-Sinai scientists have created a new experimental drug called TY1 that helps the body repair damaged DNA and restore ...

The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break—when both ...

Scientists have identified an RNA that they named 'lncREST' (long non-coding RNA REplication STress) and uncovered its role in triggering an effective response to the stress induced by rapid cell ...

RNA’s Surprising Role in DNA Repair New insights could lead to improved treatments for cancer and other diseases. Francesca Storici and her research team discovered a surprising role for RNA in DNA ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication ...

The universal features that define genomic regions acting as replication origins remain unclear. In this study, we mapped a set of origins in Trypanosoma brucei using stranded short nascent strand ...

This diagram depicts the chemical structure of pyrimidine, a six-membered aromatic ring with two nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3 (highlighted in blue). The remaining positions are occupied by ...
