Every time a cell copies its DNA, parts of the genome are exposed and vulnerable to damage or errors. Molecular biologist ...

Newborn mice neurons can snap both DNA strands to migrate, then repair the breaks within a day. The process may be a normal ...

528Hz: a frequency believed to promote dna repair and positive transformation. Let the soothing tones guide you through a ...

Cancer research, drug safety testing and aging biology may all gain a major boost from a new fluorescent sensor developed at Utrecht University. This new tool allows scientists to watch DNA damage and ...

DNA repair proteins act like the body's editors, constantly finding and reversing damage to our genetic code. Researchers have long struggled to understand how cancer cells hijack one of these ...

Researchers from the University of Birmingham have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question. The publication of two papers ...

Among the central risk factors in early-stage oncology investing is the distance separating laboratory findings from clinical reality. Onco-Innovations has worked methodically to close that gap. The ...

The class of drugs known as DNA Damage Response inhibitors, which work by blocking cancer cells’ ability to repair their own damaged DNA, is expanding rapidly beyond its original anchor, the PARP ...

Following a double-strand DNA break, an enzyme called PARP1 helps hold the two strands together —like superglue— and creates a safe zone for other proteins to come repair the damage. We don’t exactly ...

Researchers have captured the first atomic-level views of human SMUG1, a key enzyme involved in repairing damaged DNA.

The base excision repair pathway protects DNA from base damage via oxidation, deamination, alkylation and methylation. DNA glycosylases are key enzymes that recognize damaged bases in a ...

DNA repair by photolyases has classically been viewed as a light-dependent process, restricted to the reversal of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers. A recent study published in Nature Communications ...
