For the first time, scientists have captured the exact moment DNA begins to unravel, shedding light on a fundamental chemical process that enables DNA to serve as the blueprint for life. A recent ...

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 ...

Mycosis fungoides, the most prevalent CTCL subtype, accounts for the majority of cases. Although early-stage disease has a five-year survival rate of roughly 88%, it is a chronic cancer with ...

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.

Mycosis fungoides is the most common subtype, making up the vast majority of CTCL cases. While early-stage disease has an estimated five-year survival rate of 88%, it remains a difficult-to-manage ...

After a finite number of divisions, cells simply give up. As each round of replication trims their telomeres-the protective ...

Technologies needed for tracing engineered biothreats back to their sources are advancing rapidly. Here are some ...

The protein, reverse transcriptase, has become an essential tool for making DNA copies of RNA.
