New research shows that the nuclease domain of the E. coli RecBCD helicase plays a key role in regulating DNA binding and the extent of base pair melting during double-strand break repair. Deleting ...
Scientists have uncovered new DNA-binding proteins from some of the most extreme environments on Earth and shown that they can improve rapid medical tests for infectious diseases. The international ...
Some pathogens use temperature as a trigger and activate virulence only after entering the warmer environment of a host. A research team from Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, and the University of ...
An asymmetric kleisin path breaks the symmetry of the SMC homodimer, ensuring unidirectional DNA translocation via a segment capture mechanism.
New analytical methods developed at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions have increased our understanding of how bacteria manage DNA. The methods enabled researchers to uncover ...
Cancer cells excel at evading detection, but subtle chemical differences set them apart from healthy cells. Now, a team of ...
DNA can also be demethylated, either through passive or active processes. Passive DNA demethylation occurs when the methylation pattern is not replenished during DNA replication and gradually ...
