Scientists from Kolkata-based Bose Institute have created GlowCas9 -- a CRISPR protein that lights up while performing gene ...
Biologists have long suspected that aging is not just a slow, inevitable fraying of our cells but a process governed by ...
DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs) represent a severe form of DNA damage that can disrupt essential chromatin-based processes.
Scientists discovered that the protein RPA plays a critical and previously unconfirmed role in stimulating telomerase to ...
DNA can sustain serious injuries called double strand breaks, in which both strands of the helix snap. These breaks are among ...
An international research team has identified a human protein, ANKLE1, as the first DNA-cutting enzyme (nuclease) in mammals ...
Scripps Research scientists have discovered how some tumors endure DNA damage, revealing a potential new way to target them. The DNA inside our cells is constantly exposed to damage, and one of the ...
DNA nanostructures are exciting new biomedical tools with myriad potential in treatment, diagnosis and disease prevention.
They found that in women ages 20 to 32, about 1 in 5 eggs carried a chromosome error. But after 32, that number started ...
After two decades in the making, scientists have cracked the code on a drug that can repair DNA, setting the scene for a new ...
The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break-when both sides of the DNA helix are cut at once.
A closeup look at colibactin’s structure reveals chemical motifs that guide its mutation-wreaking “warheads” to specific stretches of DNA.
