In a new study, published in Cell, researchers describe a newfound mechanism for creating proteins in a giant DNA virus, comparable to a mechanism in eukaryotic cells. The finding challenges the dogma ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a novel approach to halt the progression of colorectal cancer by inducing irreversible cellular aging. Their findings demonstrate that suppressing a ...

Every day, billions of cells in your body divide, helping to replace old and injured cells with new ones. And each time this ...

The discovery could serve as a starting point for antiviral strategies. A research team at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, has identified a previously unknown cellular mechanism crucial to the ...

Independent verification of data is a cornerstone of scientific research. The scientific method relies on reproducibility to validate findings and build up | Cell And Molecular Biology ...

Researchers have identified a molecular brake that limits DNA replication in healthy cells, revealing how cells prevent a long-suspected replication catastrophe and pointing to a potential ...

For almost 60 years, scientists have tried to understand why DNA doesn’t replicate wildly and uncontrollably every time a cell divides – which they need to do constantly. Without this process, we ...

Single-cell analysis helps uncover how the BK virus replicates, opening the door to new drug targets. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. Without a complete ...

MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...
