When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular ageing, cancer, ...

What just happened? Ray tracing was supposed to be faster and smoother on AMD's latest GPUs, yet some demanding games still struggle. A closer look now points to the real reason behind the ...

The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must ...

Amanda Kay Montoya is an Associate Professor at the University of California, Los Angeles. She serves on the Board of Directors for the Center for Open Science. She receives funding from the ...

The Presidential Commission to Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) released a report on children’s health last month, and it uses the word “crisis” no fewer than 40 times within 72 pages. One of these ...

Ensuring that DNA replication occurs at the right stage of the cell cycle is of crucial importance in biology. In bacteria, DNA replication begins with the assembly of a DNA-protein complex called the ...

This valuable descriptive manuscript builds on prior research showing that the elimination of Origin Recognition Complex (ORC) subunits does not halt DNA replication. The authors obtain solid data ...

Accurate genome duplication is essential for all living cells. In Escherichia coli and most other bacteria, a circular chromosome is replicated bidirectionally at high speed. Two replisomes, assembled ...

Kafka replication is a critical mechanism for ensuring data reliability, fault tolerance, and high availability in distributed streaming systems. This comprehensive blog examines the fundamental ...

Two new papers claim to show that AI has abilities that we should know about—including cloning itself. These technologies have vacuumed up millions of people’s work and can mimic code and phrasing.

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 ...
