Before a cell divides, its DNA is replicated so that each daughter cell inherits the same genetic information. The two copies, known as "sister chromatids," are held together by a ring-shaped protein ...

The accurate replication of genetic material DNA is one of the most fundamental biological processes essential for the survival, growth, and reproduction of all living organisms. Eukaryotes, including ...

Researchers at the Center for Embryology and Healthy Development (CRESCO) aim to find out why so many early embryos fail in their development. New insights into how maternal and paternal DNA is ...

The MCM helicase is broadly bound across the genome, and its phosphorylation is antagonistically regulated by the kinase DDK and the phosphatase RIF1–PP1. TRESLIN–MTBP recognises the phosphorylated ...

Researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Every day, billions of cells in your body ...
