Weizmann Institute of Science researchers were thrilled when they managed to observe the birth of a protein made by a single DNA molecule: No one had previously seen this event outside a cell. That ...
Inside cells, DNA twists and coils itself into a variety of different secondary structures—including i-motifs (iMs) and ...
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 ...
Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) proteins are essential for successful chromosome transmission during replication and segregation of the genome in all organisms. SMC proteins were thought ...
New research published in Nature Communications has linked a normal cellular process to an accumulation of DNA mutations in ...

DNA has an expiration date. But proteins are revealing secrets about our ancient ancestors we never thought possible.
The moment a creature dies, its DNA begins to break down. Half of it degrades every 521 years on average. By about 6.8 million years, even under ideal preservation conditions in cold, stable ...
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 the protein RPA plays a critical and previously unconfirmed role in stimulating telomerase to ...
