Before a cell divides, its DNA is replicated so that each daughter cell inherits the same genetic information. The two copies ...
Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves. For this, the cell must duplicate its DNA – its genome – and segregate it equally ...
The fish that limbed vertebrates evolved from don't have obvious digit equivalents, and the most common types of fish just ...
An international collaborative research team has discovered that G-quadraplex DNA (G4-DNA) accumulates in neurons and dynamically controls the activation and repression of genes underlying long-term ...
The formation of DNA adducts due to flavouring substances, particularly those derived from botanicals, has emerged as a critical area of toxicological research. Many naturally occurring compounds ...
More than a decade ago, scientists harnessed a bacterial molecular machine that identifies and cuts specific sections of DNA, ...
Aging, neurological diseases and our bodies' stress response are all linked to the tiny power plants inside each cell known ...
Researchers at Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University and colleagues have achieved a major breakthrough in understanding sperm DNA packaging. Using high-speed atomic force ...
An international collaborative research team, including scientists from UQ’s Queensland Brain Institute (QBI), has discovered a novel mechanism underlying memory involving rapid changes in a specific ...
