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 ...
DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.
A Northwestern Medicine study has revealed a previously unknown connection between two fundamental cellular processes, ...
In a study that appears in the journal Cell, scientists from San Francisco-based Gladstone Institutes—including co-first author Megan Ostrowski (left) and senior author Vijay Ramani, PhD ...
“Our lab is generally interested in discovering and characterizing previously unknown or poorly understood factors that are essential for genome maintenance. This is particularly important in the ...
Researchers at the University of Toronto have discovered a DNA repair mechanism that advances understanding of how human cells stay healthy, and which could lead to new treatments for cancer and ...
At school, it's often presented as a tidy double helix but scientists are revealing the varied and intricate shapes of DNA molecules. DNA is a molecule found in just about every living cell. Because ...
Researchers at The Institute of Cancer Research, London identified the CIP2A–TOPBP1 complex as a master regulator of DNA repair during mitosis, coordinating backup pathways that protect chromosomes ...
