Chances are you've seen an illustration of DNA's double-helix structure and even pictures of the chromosomes that comprise the human genome. But where and how does the famous double helix fit into ...

During DNA replication, the unwinding of strands leaves a single strand vulnerable. How does the cell protect these strands from damage? How would you identify the protein that serves as a ...

A study links the loss of DNA methylation across the genome—as is common in cancer—to the disruption of the 3-D compartments that organize the genome and to the timing of DNA replication. Cell lines ...

Scientists have provided the most detailed account yet of the earliest stages of DNA replication, an essential process for ...

Caption An illustration showing the approach for assembling biologically functional proteins into ordered 2D and 3D arrays through programmable octahedral-shaped DNA frameworks. These frameworks ...

Additionally, the scientists unexpectedly captured for the first time a detailed picture of how the "engine" driving the cellular replication machinery moves along DNA in human cells. Their ...

facilitating either the reading of genetic sequences or the replication of DNA by matching each strand with its complementary counterpart. A DNA double helix illustration released by the National ...
