DNA replication is a fundamental biological process that enables the accurate duplication of an organism’s genetic material. This intricate mechanism ensures that each new cell receives a complete set ...

In DNA, cytosine pairs with guanine through three hydrogen bonds, forming a stable base pair. The sequence of these base pairs along the DNA strand encodes genetic information. During DNA replication, ...

Scientists have identified an RNA that they named 'lncREST' (long non-coding RNA REplication STress) and uncovered its role in triggering an effective response to the stress induced by rapid cell ...

RNA in control By uncovering RNA’s previously unknown function to repair DNA damage, our findings show how RNA may directly contribute to the stability and evolution of the genome.

New mechanism for terminating transcription of DNA into RNA in bacteria Date: May 8, 2021 Source: Penn State Summary: A bacterial protein helps to stop transcription -- the process of making RNA ...

Discovery boosts theory that life on Earth arose from RNA-DNA mix Newly described chemical reaction could have assembled DNA building blocks before life forms and their enzymes existed Date ...
