When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don't undergo mitosis, a splitting ...

Undergraduate biology students could be forgiven for thinking that scientists have DNA replication all figured out. After all, textbooks present the models of replication so matter-of-factly that it's ...

Scientists say their work on a critical step in DNA replication will provide new insights into a fundamental process of life and driver of many different diseases, including cancer. They report the ...

It may be time to update biology texts to reflect newly published data from a collaborative team of scientists at Rockefeller University, Stony Brook University, and the U.S. Department of Energy’s ...

Researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Every day, billions of cells in your body ...

To better understand BKPyV replication and ways to prevent it, researchers in the UAB Department of Microbiology have published a single-cell analysis of BKPyV infection in primary kidney cells. Their ...
