Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During ...

Although DNA is tightly packed and protected within the cell nucleus, it is constantly threatened by damage from normal ...

If severe DNA damage is not repaired, the consequences for the health of cells and tissues are dramatic. A study led by ...

For almost 60 years, scientists have tried to understand why DNA doesn't replicate wildly and uncontrollably every time a cell divides – which they need to do constantly. Without this process, we ...

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 ...

A new mouse study found that unrepaired DNA-protein crosslinks activate inflammatory signaling pathways that trigger early aging disorders.
