2009). There are still many discrepancies in the field of DSB repair regarding which factors are involved in the processing of DNA ends. The types of breaks being generated to study DSB repair ...

After 26 years, a fresh set of eyes and DNA technology spurred a break in the case of a woman's brutal Minneapolis murder.

Then, the DNA strand within each chromosome breaks in the exact same location, leaving two free ends. Each end then crosses over into the other chromosome and forms a connection called a chiasma.

Now a new study, published online in the journal Science Advances, reveals that LINE-1 binds to cellular DNA during the brief periods when nuclei break open as cells continually divide in two ...

A Kobe University team was able to edit the DNA of Lactobacillus strains directly without a template from other organisms.

Recent efforts in our lab have focused on complexes mediating DNA double strand break (DSB) repair. These range from the Structure Maintenance of Chromosome Smc5/6 complex involved in rescue of ...

Human cells have a complex DNA repair system involving over 500 crucial genes. By analyzing interactions among these genes, researchers identified new potential targets for cancer therapy.

In fact, Omeasoo’s comfort level and lack of squeamishness convinced her to pursue studies in forensics and how DNA can be used to solve crime and identify human remains, especially among ...
