Red arrows indicate the DNA repair pathways that are known to aid bacterial survival as persisters and gamblers in the ...

DNA damage response, or DDR for short, is the technical term for this. Specific signaling pathways usually initiate the ...

so it’s to be expected that cells have several mechanisms to repair DNA breakages, each providing support under different circumstances. For many of these pathways, scientists have long known ...

Science DNA breaks are toxic lesions for the cell. In order to repair these breaks, it is necessary, starting from the break ends, to find a homologous sequence within the vastness of the genome. In ...

A novel discovery in the field of pancreatic cancer treatment has been unveiled, revealing the epigenetic silencing of BEND4 ...

The mammalian DNA repair process has evolved over time into a number of complex pathways to cope with all of the alterations that can occur to the structure of DNA. The past 30 years have seen a ...

Researchers from the Mattiroli group have found that the way DNA is packaged in cells can directly impact how fast DNA itself ...

"Living organisms have evolved complex pathways to sense, signal, and repair damaged DNA," he says. "Here we're learning new ...

The award will fund work on DNA replication and pathways for cancer treatment, and create a community lab for local students to get research experience.

Bacteria frequently encounter adverse environmental conditions, such as nutrient scarcity and antibiotic exposure, which can induce DNA damage ...

They discovered that DNA packaging sends signals through an unusual pathway, affecting the cell's ability to divide and grow. This opens up new doors to study how the copying of the DNA and its ...
