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 ...

A new LUMC study has changed our understanding of how cells work. Researchers have discovered that the CFAP20 protein acts as ...

Sarah J. Aitken is at the Center of Molecular and Cellular Oncology, Yale Cancer Center, New Haven, Connecticut 06511, USA, and in the Department of Pathology, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven. Read ...

A Northwestern Medicine study has revealed a previously unknown connection between two fundamental cellular processes, ...

If measured from beginning to end, the DNA in our cells is too long to fit into the cell’s nucleus, explaining why it must be constantly folded and packaged. When it is time for cell division, and the ...

A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA during the replication process has been identified. A protein that is involved in determining which enzymes cut or unwind DNA ...

Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) reveal that metabolic enzymes known for their roles in energy production and nucleotide synthesis are taking on unexpected "second jobs" within ...

Many cellular functions in the human body are controlled by biological droplets called Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) droplets. These droplets, made of soft biological materials, exist inside ...

Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.

A time-delay circuit enables precise control over the division of synthetic DNA droplets, which mimic biological Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) droplets found in cells. By utilizing a ...
