Mayo Clinic researchers have identified a protein that acts like a traffic controller for DNA, preventing damage during cell ...

Visualizing and quantifying DNA replication dynamics in living human cells remains challenging. Here, a new super-resolution ...

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent stem cells that can produce all cell types of an organism. ES cells proliferate rapidly and have been thought to experience high levels of intrinsic ...

MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...

A groundbreaking study has revealed that your mom and dad’s DNA don’t just pass on telomere length, they actively reshape it ...

In tissue biopsies, cancer cells are frequently observed to have nuclei (the cell's genetic information storage) that are ...

Conventional studies on stem cell fates are primarily focused on transcription factors, with the limited consideration for 3D ...

Single-cell analysis helps uncover how the BK virus replicates, opening the door to new drug targets. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. Without a complete ...

BK polyomavirus, or BKPyV, is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. There are no effective drugs to treat BKPyV. Research reveals new aspects of BKPyV replication, offering possible drug targets ...
