With a rate of mutation 35 percent higher than random chance, this previously unknown weakness could be a major vector for ...
An international research team has identified a human protein, ANKLE1, as the first DNA-cutting enzyme (nuclease) in mammals ...
Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks ...

Small, cancer-associated DNA circles "hitchhike" on chromosomes during cell division to spread efficiently to daughter cells ...
UC San Diego researchers uncover enzyme behind cancer genome chaos, pointing to potential therapies for aggressive tumors.
Research from Umeå University paves the way for a quantitative data analysis method to study the cell division process in individual cells. The improved resolution will promote advanced cell analysis ...
Figure 1. ANKLE1 senses mechanical tension in DNA and helps resolve DNA bridges connecting separating daughter nuclei. ANKLE1 ...
Researchers have found that the way DNA is packaged in cells can directly impact how fast DNA itself is copied during cell division. They discovered that DNA packaging sends signals through an unusual ...
University of California San Diego researchers have discovered the enzyme responsible for chromothripsis, a process in which ...
After a finite number of divisions, cells simply give up. As each round of replication trims their telomeres—the protective ...
