The binding of proteins to DNA is crucial for producing other proteins, ensuring that all the necessary processes in cells ...

Study reveals how cells regulate repair protein production to prevent DNA damage over-repair or under-repair, aiding cell survival.

The DNA in our cells is constantly damaged, with the most severe being the simultaneous breakage of both strands that compose it. In a study published in Nature Communications, scientists reveal in ...

Scientists have developed a DNA nanoflower that delivers chemotherapy and gene therapy directly to breast cancer cells, showing improved tumour targeting and reduced side effects in early tests.

Blueberries are the crowned hero when it comes to fighting free radicals (molecules that can damage DNA cells), and they do pack a lot of antioxidants.

The primary function of the nucleolus is as the site of ribosome-subunit biogenesis in eukaryotic cells. Nucleoli form at the end of mitosis around the tandemly repeated clusters of ribosomal DNA ...

Cell-free (cf)DNA is a transformative biomarker for non-invasive cancer diagnostics, offering unprecedented opportunities for early detection and treatment monitoring across oncology applications.

CpG DNA directly stimulates B cells, macrophages and DCs to secrete cytokines, especially T H 1-like cytokines such as IL-12 and IL-18; the cells express costimulatory molecules and show increased ...

DNA N 6 -methyladenine (6mA) is an emerging epigenetic mark in the mammalian genome. ALKBH1 preferentially exhibits 6mA demethylase activity for single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) or bubbled/bulged DNA, but ...

Researchers at the University of Oxford and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have uncovered the mechanism by which cells identify and repair a highly toxic form of DNA ...

Researchers at Jiangmen Central Hospital (China) investigated the association between red blood cell folate and visceral adipose tissue in young and middle-aged adults in the United States using ...
