If you are anything like us, whenever you plan a journey, you spend a remarkable amount of time thinking about the start and ...

Cells have evolved careful checks to ensure DNA is copied only once, but how they switch on replication at the right moment ...

DNA replication in humans requires precise regulation to ensure accurate genome duplication and maintain genome integrity. A key indicator of this regulation is replication timing, which reflects the ...

In eukaryotic cells, DNA replication is organised both spatially and temporally, as evidenced by the stage-specific spatial distribution of replication foci in the nucleus. Despite the genetic ...

To better understand BKPyV replication and ways to prevent it, researchers in the UAB Department of Microbiology have published a single-cell analysis of BKPyV infection in primary kidney cells. Their ...

R-loops are structures that form when a strand of RNA (red) forms a stable structure with double-stranded DNA, causing one strand of the DNA to form a loop. R-loops are associated with gene ...

Arc Institute, a research organization that operates in collaboration with UC Berkeley, has released an artificial intelligence model that can classify and generate strands of DNA. This technology has ...

A stretch of DNA can look static on a screen, just long rows of A, T, C and G. But buried in those letters are small changes that mark where lineages split, rejoined and drifted over time. Researchers ...

Researchers at the University of Oregon have developed an artificial intelligence tool that can read genetic code the way large language models like ChatGPT read text. Scanning the genome for ...

BK polyomavirus, or BKPyV, is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. There are no effective drugs to treat BKPyV. Research reveals new aspects of BKPyV replication, offering possible drug targets ...
