When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don't undergo mitosis, a splitting ...

In a landmark simulation, scientists have recreated the full cell cycle of a living cell in four dimensions — three ...

Scientists have created a live-cell DNA sensor that reveals how damage appears and disappears inside living cells, capturing the entire repair sequence as it unfolds. Instead of freezing cells at ...

A new single-molecule flow-stretch assay enables real-time observation of DNA-protein interactions to identify the molecular ...

A new fluorescent sensor is giving scientists an unprecedented view of how cells respond to DNA damage, capturing the repair process as it unfolds in real time. The tool, developed at Utrecht ...

DNA can sustain serious injuries called double strand breaks, in which both strands of the helix snap. These breaks are among the most dangerous forms of DNA damage and immediately trigger the cell's ...

Maize serves as a vital model species for advancing our understanding of plant biology, yet many mysteries remain about the ...
