Scientists read ancient DNA from South African hunter gatherers and found a very early human branch that shaped survival ...
By looking at maggots’ genes and metabolic changes, investigators can better predict time of death, the researchers said.
Cedars-Sinai scientists have created a new experimental drug called TY1 that helps the body repair damaged DNA and restore ...
After two decades in the making, scientists have cracked the code on a drug that can repair DNA, setting the scene for a new ...
A new study reports that the locations where genes begin are particularly prone to mutations, and these genetic changes can ...
When DNA breaks, cells must repair it accurately to prevent harmful mutations. Researchers have discovered that during a key ...
When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication ...
The DNA inside our cells is constantly being damaged, and one of the worst kinds of damage is a double-strand break—when both sides of ...
When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular ageing, cancer, ...
Scientists discovered that the first 100 base pairs of human genes are unusually prone to mutations, especially during the ...
Small, cancer-associated DNA circles "hitchhike" on chromosomes during cell division to spread efficiently to daughter cells ...
