Uncovering the principle by which DNA replication initiation sites are determined in the human genome
When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular aging, cancer, ...
At the scale of individual cells, the human body is constantly in motion. Every second, millions of cells divide, ...
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 protein thought to play a supporting role in DNA replication actually facilitates the whole process
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 ...
Researchers have gained a clearer insight into how common alterations to the structure of DNA affect the process of DNA replication. These structural changes can put a stop to replication, causing ...
The Okazaki Fragments That Solved the Mystery of DNA Replication1. The Mystery That Could Not Be Solved by the Discovery of ...
A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA during the replication process has been identified in a new study. In a new paper published in Nature Communications, an ...
DNA replication is the fundamental process by which cells duplicate their genetic material before division. Initiation occurs at defined origins where a hexameric helicase unwinds the double helix, ...
In prokaryotic cells, transcription (DNA to mRNA) and translation (mRNA to protein) are so closely linked that translation usually begins before transcription is complete. In eukaryotic cells, however ...
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 ...
