DNA Can Be Built in a Way We've Never Seen Before, Study Finds
A diagram of the DRT3 system, showing Drt3a in yellow and Drt3b in blue. (Hyunbin Lee) Scientists have just discovered an ...
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 ...
The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must ...
Organisms need to preserve genetic information to prevent the detrimental effects of ageing and disease. This is achieved by accurate replication of DNA and by repair of any damage incurred as a ...

The new science of DNA’s hidden rules
Scientists are uncovering a deeper layer of DNA biology—where its shape, stiffness, and 3D organization are just as important as its sequence. New tools are mapping how replication starts, how damage ...
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 ...

DNA secrets your biology teacher never told you
DNA’s elegant double helix isn’t just beautiful—it’s a masterclass in precision engineering. From base pairing to semi-conservative replication, every step ensures life’s blueprint is copied ...
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 ...
King Abdullah University of Science & Technology (KAUST)Mar 19 2025 For the first time, scientists have witnessed the very moment DNA begins to unravel, revealing a necessary molecular event for DNA ...
A team of researchers at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center has identified a new pathway through which mutations in the tumor suppressor p53 gene—found very frequently in human tumors—hijack DNA ...
Drs Ursula A. Matulonis and Joyce F. Liu discuss targeting DNA damage and repair and replication stress in endometrial cancer. Drs Ursula A. Matulonis and Panagiotis A. Konstantinopoulos discuss ...
The DNA synthesis market offers significant growth opportunities driven by tailored therapies, DNA-based research, and diagnostics. Key market prospects include advancements in enzymatic synthesis, ...
