"The DNA inside our cells is constantly experiencing damage, and DNA repair is happening all the time to fix that damage and ...

Red arrows indicate the DNA repair pathways that are known to aid bacterial survival as persisters and gamblers in the presence of fluoroquinolones. Blue color arrow indicates downregulation, while ...

Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST; President Kunwoo Lee) announced that a research team led by Professor Younghoon Kee from the Department of New Biology has successfully ...

Yuan He aims to understand how cells read and repair their genomes. His research encompasses two primary areas: transcription, in which genetic information is copied from DNA into messenger RNA, and ...

In a new study, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig analyzed the impact of more than 2,000 clinically approved drugs on DNA repair and CRISPR genome editing ...

A new discovery offers hope for Huntington’s disease. This discovery provides hope that a DNA repair process may help slow or stop disease progression. Research has identified a critical DNA repair ...

Scientists discovered that aging DNA repeats expand at wildly different speeds—and in some people, the consequences can be devastating. A sweeping genetic study drawing on data from more than 900,000 ...

DNA can sustain serious injuries called double strand breaks, in which both strands of the helix snap. These breaks are among the most dangerous forms of DNA damage and immediately trigger the cell's ...

An analysis of genetic data from over 900,000 people shows that certain stretches of DNA, made up of short sequences repeated ...
