Site-specific recombination is employed widely in bacteria and bacteriophage as a basis for genetic switching events that control phenotypic variation. It plays a vital role in the life cycles of ...
The universal features that define genomic regions acting as replication origins remain unclear. In this study, we mapped a set of origins in Trypanosoma brucei using stranded short nascent strand ...
DNA is a molecule that can get twisted and tangled - a process that must be closely regulated A research team has developed an automated technique to visualise and measure DNA tangles Technique is so ...
An international collaborative research team has discovered that G-quadraplex DNA (G4-DNA) accumulates in neurons and dynamically controls the activation and repression of genes underlying long-term ...
Image 1 shows what looks like two pieces of interlinked rope. The orange “ropes” are in fact circles, each one a double helix of DNA. Each time the two circles of DNA cross each other, one either goes ...
Using high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-em), researchers from Durham University, Jagiellonian University, and the John Innes Centre uncovered unprecedented detail of gyrase’s action on ...
Neuroscientists have uncovered a new mechanism for memory formation, and it involves changes in the structure of your DNA. If you were asked to picture a molecule of DNA, chances are you would ...
