For decades, biology textbooks taught that DNA’s story could be told with a single image: two elegant strands twisting in a ...

Abstract: Origins of replication sites (ORIs) are crucial genomic regions where DNA replication initiation takes place, playing pivotal roles in fundamental biological processes like cell division, ...

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

AI maps fleeting DNA quadruplexes, revealing paired structures that control genes in healthy cells and cancer.

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...

In this GEN webinar, DNA synthesis experts Michael Junkin, PhD, and Brittany Enzmann, PhD, will provide an exclusive first look at Elegen’s GEN II Cell-Free DNA production platform that combines ...

A gene that helped bowheads adapt to frigid Arctic waters also granted them extraordinary longevity. Could it help aging humans become more resilient? By Carl Zimmer For more than 1,000 years, the ...

Before a cell divides, its DNA is replicated so that each daughter cell inherits the same genetic information. The two copies, known as "sister chromatids," are held together by a ring-shaped protein ...

The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must ...

The Presidential Commission to Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) released a report on children’s health last month, and it uses the word “crisis” no fewer than 40 times within 72 pages. One of these ...

This valuable descriptive manuscript builds on prior research showing that the elimination of Origin Recognition Complex (ORC) subunits does not halt DNA replication. The authors obtain solid data ...
