Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During ...

Using single-cell epigenomic profiling of immune cells from 110 individuals, researchers show that genetic variation and ...

For almost 60 years, scientists have tried to understand why DNA doesn't replicate wildly and uncontrollably every time a ...

The MCM helicase is broadly bound across the genome, and its phosphorylation is antagonistically regulated by the kinase DDK and the phosphatase RIF1–PP1. TRESLIN–MTBP recognises the phosphorylated ...

The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible ...

A deeper understanding of how DNA changes over generations helps scientists learn why people differ and how diseases develop. Until recently, many fast-changing parts of the human genome remained ...
