From the blueprint of life encoded in our DNA to the awe-inspiring complexity of our genetic inheritance, we will embark on a journey through the microscopic world within us and witness the remarkable ...

DNA replication is a fundamental process essential for bacterial growth and survival. Initiation begins at the chromosomal origin (oriC), where the conserved initiator protein DnaA assembles into an ...

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, ...

In a twist on the question, 'Which came first, the chicken or the egg?', scientists have long faced a similar question about how human adenovirus replicates: 'Which comes first, assembly of the viral ...

Leicester: A team of scientists at the University of Leicester have captured how cells begin the crucial process of copying their genetic material that may help in treating certain viruses and cancers ...

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 ...

Washington [US], October 16 (ANI): Researchers at Colorado State University discovered an alternative way for studying alterations during the DNA replication process in lab settings using genetically ...

Every person starts as just one fertilized egg. By adulthood, that single cell has turned into roughly 37 trillion cells, many of which keep dividing to create the same amount of fresh human cells ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...
