Enzyme: This game-changing protein might be the key to understanding how our cells divide and why cancer happens. Here's what ...

Researchers at the Center for Genomic Regulation (CRG) reveal that metabolic enzymes known for their roles in energy ...

A breakthrough tool called Helicase-Assisted Continuous Editing (HACE) allows scientists to create precise genetic mutations ...

However, TNBC has a propensity to accumulate DNA damage without consequence, making it resilient to conventional treatments. The study helps partly explain why: the metabolic enzyme IMPDH2 ...

Studies suggest the cell is more interconnected than previously thought, opening up "exciting possibilities for science and medicine." ...

This is because, like DNA, RNA can carry genetic information, but, like a protein, it can also act as an enzyme, initiating or accelerating reactions. While the activity of a few RNA enzymes ...

Gene mutations have consequences both good and bad—from resistance to conditions like diabetes to susceptibility to certain ...

This important work advances our understanding of DNA methylation and its consequences for susceptibility to DNA damage. This work presents evidence that DNA methylation can accentuate the genomic ...

A new phase 1 trial demonstrates the safety and effectiveness of personalized neoantigen DNA vaccines, showing promising ...

Metabolic enzymes, typically associated with energy production, are now discovered to also play essential roles in the nucleus, such as orchestrating cell division and DNA repair. This breakthrough, ...

Life Sciences Center (LSC) have discovered a unique way for cells to silence specific genes without cutting DNA. This research, led by Prof. Patrick Pausch and published in the journal Nature ...

Because the bricks self-assemble on the template DNA strand, lots of writing happens at once, rather than bit by bit. Speeding up the process, and making it accessible to non-scientists, could help ...
