Powerful new applications of what is known as next-generation sequencing are now helping with identification of degraded ...

For the first time, scientists have sequenced the oldest and complete DNA set of an ancient Egyptian man, dating to when the ...

In the dim waters off the Japanese coast, scientists have stumbled upon something that shouldn’t exist. Or at least not by the rules we thought biology followed. While sequencing DNA from a tiny ...

More than 4,000 years ago, Egypt and Mesopotamia stood as two of the most complex societies on the planet. But the new DNA ...

When not undergoing replication, DNA molecules float freely within the cytoplasm of a cell. This makes them available to the accessory molecules that organize and repair DNA.

But while experts now know a fair amount about ancient Egyptian life, they still understand very little about the ...

Cryo-electron microscopy reveals hidden mechanics of DNA replication, sheds new light on cancer target Date: March 10, 2025 Source: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center ...

After years of collecting consumer DNA, genetic testing companies are monetizing the data. But who should profit — the ...

Liu: It's a really complicated topic. In really broad terms, replication stress is when the process of DNA replication — by which DNA is duplicated during the cell cycle — is slowed down or ...

Glucose levels influence physiology and adaptation rates under replication stress, yet core adaptive mutations remain ...

Their findings, which were published March 7 in Science, one of world’s leading scientific journals, not only reveal new details about how secondary DNA structures like G4s can impede DNA replication, ...

The enzymes that handle DNA molecules are often called "polymerases," but the -ase suffix denotes an enzyme. When not undergoing replication, DNA molecules float freely within the cytoplasm of a cell.
