In a new study, published in Cell, researchers describe a newfound mechanism for creating proteins in a giant DNA virus, comparable to a mechanism in eukaryotic cells. The finding challenges the dogma ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a novel approach to halt the progression of colorectal cancer by inducing irreversible cellular aging. Their findings demonstrate that suppressing a ...

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's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions, it can temporarily fold ...

For decades, biology textbooks have drawn a firm line: viruses are not alive. They lack the machinery to reproduce on their ...

A team has unearthed new findings about what happens during the minutes and hours after a cell divides, expanding our understanding of human biology -- and potentially leading to better medicines. DNA ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

Existing gene-editing technologies have led to significant advances in both medicine and food production. However, momentum appears to be slowing, particularly in health applications, as early hype is ...
