RNA’s Surprising Role in DNA Repair New insights could lead to improved treatments for cancer and other diseases. Francesca Storici and her research team discovered a surprising role for RNA in DNA ...
Cancer’s strongest gene switches push DNA into damaging overdrive, creating repeated breaks and repairs that may fuel tumor ...
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 ...
New research sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human cells. The study demonstrates how these proteins ...
“By enhancing DNA repair, we can heal tissue damage that occurs during a heart attack,” Ibrahim said. “We are particularly excited because TY1 also works in other conditions, including autoimmune ...
Researchers have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question. Researchers from the University of Birmingham have uncovered ...
A protein long studied for its role in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia now appears to serve a ...
A new single-molecule flow-stretch assay enables real-time observation of DNA-protein interactions to identify the molecular ...
NEW ORLEANS — Could a look inside your DNA, that blueprint of what makes you who you are, guide you to better health and performance? A doctor says it is helping him treat his patients' aches, pains, ...
