A research team has identified a new mechanism that controls DNA’s ability to replicate—and thereby a cell’s ability to ...

For almost 60 years, scientists have tried to understand why DNA doesn't replicate wildly and uncontrollably every time a ...

“Our lab is generally interested in discovering and characterizing previously unknown or poorly understood factors that are essential for genome maintenance. This is particularly important in the ...

DNA repair proteins act like the body's editors, constantly finding and reversing damage to our genetic code. Researchers have long struggled to understand how cancer cells hijack one of these ...

Scientists have uncovered how DnaA, the master key to DNA replication, opens the door to bacterial growth. This breakthroughpaves the way for new antibiotics to combat the rising tide of antibiotic ...

DNA data storage is a big deal. Partly, it's because we're based on DNA, and any research into manipulation of that molecule will pay dividends for medicine and biology in general -- but in part, it's ...
