Before a cell divides, its DNA is replicated so that each daughter cell inherits the same genetic information. The two copies ...

For the first time, scientists have shown that a major protein acts as a direct block in multiple stages of DNA replication, improving our understanding of how cancer develops. Researchers studied the ...

A new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Communications, reveals that cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) ...

Jennifer A. Surtees has long been dedicated to studying genome stability and boosting community involvement in research. With a new National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant, she’ll get to do both.

Scientists have found that non-coding ‘junk’ DNA, far from being harmless and inert, could potentially contribute to the development of cancer. Their study has shown how non-coding DNA can get in the ...
