Researchers have now uncovered the role of mitochondrial transcription ... of deletion of TEFM on mtDNA replication. By knocking out TEFM, they observed a notable reduction in mtDNA copy number, ...

Mitochondrial transcription elongation factor maintains the balance between transcription and replication of mitochondrial DNA offering insights into potential treatments for mitochondrial disease ...

there was an increase in both replication and transcription activity, significantly raising the likelihood of encounters between replisomes or transcription complexes and topoisomerase-DNA ...

The foundations of life hinge on the precise replication and transcription of DNA and the translation of the resultant messenger RNAs. These processes are responsible for accurately passing down ...

Understanding the process of replication and transcription of mtDNA is crucial ... "While mtDNA is much smaller than nuclear DNA, it plays a crucial role in life forms through energy production.

Scientists know less about the function of the remaining 99% of DNA but believe them to be involved in regulating transcription ... and Z-DNA. DNA replication is a process that occurs when DNA ...

and these breaks tend to occur more frequently in DNA replication and transcription intermediates. The bacterium Escherichia coli expresses the RecBCD protein with both DNA-unwinding (helicase) ...

This key difference could affect how genes are accessed and used by the cell to regulate important processes like gene expression and DNA replication. "These differences in chromatin behavior are ...

In the current research, they demonstrate that a phosphorylation site — where a phosphate is added to a molecule — on the major polyomavirus DNA replication and transcription protein is highly ...
