Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...

Researchers have identified an alternate method to study changes during the DNA replication process in lab settings using genetically modified yeast. The new approach offers a clearer window than ...

Researchers at The University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) have identified how a key enzyme called ATR protects DNA from ...

Replication origins in Trypanosoma brucei integrate multiple features previously described individually in opisthokonts, revealing a unified structural topology built from strand-specific nucleotide ...
