DNA is fundamental to the biology of all life on Earth, but how many of us actually know what it is or what it's made of?

One of the key challenges of the modern genomics era is studying the thousands of genes in a single human cell at scale. To ...

Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves. For ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

What if you could take a picture of every gene inside a living organism—not with light, but with DNA itself? Scientists at ...

Scientists have provided the most detailed account yet of the earliest stages of DNA replication, an essential process for ...

Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves.

Most DNA molecules consist of two polymers (double-stranded) of four nucleotides that each consist of a nucleobase, the carbohydrate deoxyribose and a phosphate group, where the carbohydrate and ...

PARP7 is a mono-ADP-ribosyl transferase (mono-ART) which has recently gained attention due to its emerging role as a negative ...

This study provides a potentially useful investigation into the positive role of BDNF/TrkB signaling in implanted dental pulp stem cells to enhance dentin regeneration in the context of dental caries.

This study provides compelling evidence that kinesin's stepping mechanism is governed by strain-induced conformational changes in its nucleotide-binding pockets. Using pre-steady state kinetics and ...
